Dear All, How in the name of sanity are we expected to believe that we cannot predict the position of a massive object like the Moon but can navigate a satellite in this manner over these huge distances? It really does beggar belief. Jack Poor Jack... the moon is affected by many variables more effective than a satellite.. the tides the storms.. Even if we set up a tidal power generation system , it must effect the moon and the earth in some minute detail.. Minute yes... But the weather extractions cyclones are not so minute.. Be fair Jack, lets not get emotive.. "How in the name of insanity...." in any case they still get it right.. using the geocentric or the heliocentic base, astronomy predictions are excellent. giggle Early happy hour today...

Wowsers, that is some precise move, absolutely impossible to calculate such.
