Thats an ingenious idea Paul.. Something I never visualised.. another way of twisting a cable? Now I know why my hose twists up as I walk around the yard watering.. I'll have to learn to retrace my steps .. Have you investigated the bank/money /Government borrowing scam yet? Your life does depend on it..

I've added to the drawing. There is now a rubber band fitted between two hooks on the bottom of the ball and two hooks on a fixed object mounted below the centre of the thin, circular metal rod. I now ask you another question. If the ball is propelled around the circle, will the rubber band show twisting? Further, will the twisting not be in fact, one twist for each and every trip the ball makes around the circle? In another post this thread -- From philip madsen Mon Nov 24 21:36:28 2008, he has presented you with excellent advice. Study it, understand it. It is the truth. In another post this thread -- From Bernie Brauer Mon Nov 24 15:39:38 2008, you said - It actually also works against heliocentrists because who could believe their synchronized Moon rotation explanation? The odds are way against that type of order in an exploding universe. As has been mentioned previously by others, it doesn't make a jot of difference what you believe, or what others believe -- what matters is what is. Arguments about how many teeth a horse might have is not the way to go. The way to go is to go and count them. Well metaphorically speaking, so far as the phenomenon of synchronised orbits of moons is concerned, the teeth have been counted. Most of the large moons in the solar system have their rotations synchronised with their revolutions. Even further, there is one planet which has an orbit where the rotation is synchronised with the revolution though it is not 1:1 but rather 1.5:1. I'll not spoil your joy of discovery though -- you'll be thrilled to discover it for yourself.

"All rigid body movements are rotations, translations, or combinations of the two." So the movement of the Moon is a translation, but there is no rotation. The Moon is fixed within the rotating firmament.

So the sphere is fixed upon the circular rod and the same point always shows inward. I have attached an illustration of what I think you have described but with the small addition of a straight, thin, light, paper tube attached to the wooden ball so as to indicate visually that it always points to the centre. The ball -- with the indicator -- is shown travelling around the circular rod in a clock-wise direction. Is this a fair representation? Please indicate any reservations or arguments you may have.
