Paul said, to Allen "You may care to plot on the same coordinates, the data given by geocentric sources to see how a disordered universe behaves." there are two errors or presumptions here Paul. 1. Your presumption that the geocentric position is disordered. 2. And your presumption that the formula presented would act any different if used in the geocentric situation. From my last comment to Allen you ignored my opinion of the aether rotation which gives the "illusion" of a rotating and moving world, in a real rotating universe. It has been said many times by Neville and others, that one can chose either position, GC/HC and provided the corrections were made, to conform with the base chosen the mathmatics would come up with the same answer. I know what Allen is TRYING to sayand that is not wrong. It has been said so often. In free space if two bodies A and B are coming together to collide at 100mph, no one can say what the real motions are out of an infinite number of variations between, A is stationary, moving towards B, or moving away from B and/or B is stationary, moving toward A or moving away from A. There is no fixed point of reference. Thus one is assumed. I who live on A can chose my point as static. You on B can chose the opposite. Nothing changes mathmatically, it wil be a 100mph collision. But the reality is a presumption in both cases, and therefore not a proven reality. You speak of order within an assumed "parameter", based upon what you consider ideal in a universe that evolved from nothing. I can "assume" if you like, that the universe was designed by an intelligence, which if it desired could make the world stationary, and the rest of the ordered universe comply with natural law within that framework. That the universe is as modern cosmologists describe it is reasonably assumed on the basis of their belief in the sun being the centre of the solar system. I acknowledge that. However you must admit, that if the solar system as it is was centred around the earth, and not the sun, then their model of the rest of the universe would be wrong. Therefore it only remains for us to present two models alone, geocentric or heliocentric in exclusion of any other cosmos, the solar system standing alone. For simplicity we may put all the planets sun and moons on the same plane represented by a disc. One disc is on a shaft through the sun and the other on a shaft through the earth..These we call the G main disc and the H main disc. Mounted on this disc we have secondary discs centred on their orbital centres for planets around the sun and moons around the planets. Set every thing in motion, according to what is seen from earth, The H disc is revolving once in 365 days. The G disc is revolving in 24 hours. I am ignoring for simplicity again the need for certain discs to move vertically for seasons. As I showed in the example above the observer cannot tell which of scenarios is the correct or true one. It merely remains for the geocentrist to explain how your orbital laws, in regard to sun and moon still remain in force. This we do by calling upon the existence of the disc as a reality. This is the aether. A condition of space which effects everything material, and aetherical.. (fields) The secondary discs are distortions of the aether caused by the presence of the central mass, which actually is the cause of the gravitiic and orbital laws. The laws remain because we allow you to use figures in your calculations that are relative to your base line rather than recalculating them to the relative motion of the disc (aether) You do this all the time by calling it your "frame of reference" as I alluded to in the collision example above. From here we get out of the G v H debate, and put it back in the realms of pure science. The aether is still a valid concept debated in science, if for no other reason than that certain phenomena involving wave theory of EMR cannot be explained without recourse to it. So we can now proceed with the discussion you called for so much , the aether. Unfortunately, my references may be equivalent to those available to the Wright brothers during their great venture. Keep this on the back burner till you have digested our absolute probables... and I'll get you some aether.

I trust that my support will not dilute it. I'd like to add a few things also if I may. To -- Bernie B and Marc V -- you are labouring under a mis-aprehension concerning zero gravity at an altitude of 22,000 miles (give or take). The acceleration of gravity extends to infinity and can be calculated from the product of the Universal Gravitational Constant and the two masses divided by the square of the distance between the centres of gravity of the two masses -- in maths terms - a = Gm1m2/d^2 Secondly, if you go to http://www.ajdesigner.com/phpgravity/gravity_acceleration_equation_radius.php you will find on line calculators for the above expression under Newton's Law of Gravity. To calculate orbital periods for any two bodies, just below that, you'll find Kepler's third law. To use these calculators, you'll need certain parameters and these you can find at http://www.nineplanets.org/data1.html and http://www.nineplanets.org/data.html. Remember that the height above sea level means nothing here, it is the distance from the centre of gravity that you need. Everything you need can be found to calculate orbits for any satellite of Earth (or other body if you are interested) on these two sites. If you can be bothered, you might find it constructive to generate a list of orbital periods for a range of values of say, from 100 miles out to the Moon and plot them on a piece of graph paper. You'll see that a regular curve will be shown -- just the way you would expect an ordered universe to behave. You may care to plot on the same coordinates, the data given by geocentric sources to see how a disordered universe behaves. You can also plug in the values quoted for a given orbiting object, from the shuttle to the Moon, and verify that the values obtained are as quoted. You will of course find that the orbital period obtained for the Moon will not be the 24h 52m that you observe, but rather the 27d 7h 43m (av) sidereal period which of course is different from the time between successive New Moon appearances which is 29d 12h 44m (av).
