Dear Neville,
Here is a quote from one of Steven's earlier e-mails. It is the 'additional
component of motion' that Steven mentions below that I was referring to as a
'fudge' factor.

'over a period of twelve months. This, too, is rotational movement, where the
period of rotation is one year and the orbital radius is one astronomical unit.
But the problem with this is, if the Earth is always keeping aligned with the
Northern celestial pole, then it cannot at the same time stay aligned at the
same time with the Southern celestial pole. Another way to imagine this problem
is this:How does heliocentrism account for this? A peculiar additional
component of motion has to be attached to the Earth in order to satisfy the
requirement of accounting for what we actually see

Dear Jack,
"Coincidence fudge factor"? Sounds like an Aussie sun tan lotion. I do not
know what you mean.

Dear Neville,
The drawing was just a thought in that it may help explain. The following
was taken from your paper on this subject from your website.
'But this is not what we see. Rotation about the ecliptic polar axis is
demonstrable for the Sun and, to a close approximation, most of the planets,
but not for the stars. Yearly circular motion of the stars, irrespective of
whether one assumes it to be real or apparent, about the ecliptic poles is not
observed.'
What I was trying visualise was what kind of trail would the heliocentric
model stars make over a period of one year? I know they don't because of the
'coincidence' fudge factor, but if there were no fudge factor what would we
expect to see in the heliocentric model? If you can explain it to me then I
would be happy to try and illustrate it.
Jack
