Dr. Jones & Allen,
   
  What Paul is saying is the same thing I've been trying to get across. When 
attempting to record an annual trail; as the camera moves to the next photo op 
it also gets tilted by the rotation on the nightly axis. Tilting the camera for 
the next photo alters where any particular star will fall on the photo plate. 
Surley you must see how altering the camera angle while collecting for a single 
trail (whether nightly or annual) would alter the trail?
   
  We all agree that the stars distance from the axis of rotation is what makes 
the size of the trail. We all agree that any camera angle is fine for recording 
the nightly circles - just as long as the angle stays the same for the entire 
recording. Said another way, the orientation of the camera to the ground must 
remain fixed for recording a nightly trail. Said another way, the angle of the 
camera to the axis of rotation must remain the same. It seems we should hold to 
the same criteria for the Annual trail, but we don't, because; when the camera 
moves to the next spot to record the annual trail, the angle to the axis of 
annual rotation has changed because the camera is rotating with the nightly 
axis, therefore we are no longer positioned to record the annual trail. 
   
  It is my contention that if we adjusted the angle we would indeed record 
annual star trails. My other contention is that we could make up any axis and 
record star trails around it with this method. My final contention is that the 
lack of an annual trail is not a proof for or against either HC or GC.
   
  I've heard on this forum many times that the dynamics are equal (between HC & 
GC), one could be substituted for the other, so why would you be able to record 
different things from each scenario?
   
  Last, I repeat my logical challenge (altered a little) because I think it 
still stands. If the baseline is 0 and either the camera or the star rotates 
and the camera is fixed to the earth, the nightly star circles will never 
change position. Since the star circles never change position, a different set 
of circles will never be formed from any type of composite. Therefore it is 
impossible to record an annual cirlce that is different from the nightly, using 
the method of nightly recording.

In control.
  Your description is fine for the camera which records the 'nightly' trails 
but not for the camera which records the 'annual' trails -- this is the one 
which is fixed directly to the ecliptic disk.
  I know that resorting to analogy is a risky process. Its success depends 
considerably upon the intended audience's receptivity, yet it has its uses 
where goodwill exists.
  If I, as the editor of a weekly news magazine, were to offer you a commission 
to provide me with two definitive photographs of traffic, one from the point of 
a pedestrian, and one from the point of view of a motorist, but instead you 
provided me with one view of traffic from the point of view of a pededstrian 
and one view of traffic from the point of view of another pedestrian -- you 
wouldn't get paid.
  I can understand why you won't address this issue but I'm sure you understand 
me.
  You can have the last crack.

  Paul,

Temper, temper.

If the camera is fixed to a mount, and the mount is fixed to the ground, and 
the ground is fixed to the World, and the World is fixed to the ecliptic, and 
the ecliptic rotates about the Sun (which is equivalent to the World going 
around a path in the plane of the ecliptic), then is the camera not fixed to 
the ecliptic disc?

  No sir! I said FIX it to the ecliptic disk or SIMULATE fixing it to the 
ecliptic disk; I did not say SUBSTITUTE something (like the Earth) for it.
  You can't evade this issue for ever you know!

  Paul,

Regarding your point number 6, the thing that fixes the camera to the disc of 
the ecliptic [plane] is the same thing that fixed the camera in point 5 - i.e., 
the World (or earth), since the World must stay in this plane, just as it must 
continue to rotate about its geographical polar axis in the heliocentric model 
under discussion.

I may have given you two pictures of the wedding party, but their relation to 
the position of the bell tower will be clearly seen in one of them.

  1. Assume R = 1AU = 2AU.
  2. Place your camera in a fixed position anywhere in a sphere of radius 1AU 
centered on the Sun.
  3. Point it at the NCP. Chock the shutter open. Rotate the camera 360 deg in 
almost any period of time. Close the shutter. Result -- star trails centred on 
the NCP -- sometimes referred to as 'nightly' star trails.
  4. Point your camera at the NEP. Chock the shutter open. Rotate the camera 
360 degrees in almost any period of time. Close the shutter. Result -- star 
trails centred on the NEP -- sometimes referred to as 'annual' star trails.
  5. In #3, the rotation can be obtained by fixing the camera directly to the 
Earth.
  6. In #4, the rotation can be obtained by fixing the camera to the disk of 
the ecliptic (or by simulating it).
  I wanted one picture of the wedding party and one of the bell tower. You've 
given me two of the wedding party.

  That's the whole point, Jack. There is no difference. Yet one simulation is 
achieved with a snapshot every 4 minutes and the other is achieved with a 
snapshot every 24 hours.

There is only one rotation axis, not two.

      Dear Neville,
  I can't see any difference in the two videos. What does this mean? Are you 
not able to simulate that which you want to try and do with a camera?
