Rich, I understand what you are proposing, but for gravity to hold, you would need a gravitational counter-balance to the sun to pull the system's center of gravity into the earth. This mass would have to be directly opposite the sun and I think it would have to be the exact same mass and distance as we are from the sun. Such a mass would of course have a very significant impact on the other planets and would thus be detectable. Are you throwing out gravity between the earth and sun or is there another explanation?
In that model, the motion of the Sun around the Earth is daily, while the parallax is yearly. It is fundamentally impossible for a daily variation to explain a yearly one.
Yes.Go through the experiment on page 1, tell me, do you understand how the background is moving with the star and the sun for the daily motion?
the entire star field appears to be moving in a circle of the exact distance from the Sun to the Earth!
The two movements are completely unrelated, and cannot be explained by the same phenomenon if the Earth is stationary.
Yes.
In order to explain the daily motion of the Sun, you have the Sun orbiting the Earth. In order to explain the orbits of the planets, you have to have them centered on the Sun. In order to explain the lack of observed daily parallax, the stars must not be moving along with the daily motion (except to rotate around the Earth).
Then, in order to explain the seasons, the Sun must be bobbing up and down in its orbit with a period of one year. But now you have a problem: as the Sun looks like it's bobbing up and down, the entire star field appears to be moving in a circle of the exact distance from the Sun to the Earth! The two movements are completely unrelated, and cannot be explained by the same phenomenon if the Earth is stationary.
I read it, but it doesn't answer my question at all. If there is a gravity well balancing the gravitational pull of the sun, it would have a gravitational pull on the other planets as well. This would be observable even if it was made up of matter that only interacted via gravity.This model deals with massive superstrings.
MASSIVE SUPERSTRINGS AND THE FIRMAMENT
"The frontiers of modern cosmology are advancing on two fronts: twistors and superstrings, both of which originated in particle physics. These two areas hold the promise of providing us with, as F. David Peat reports it, "the theory of everything." Strangely, many of the properties of Roger Penrose's twistors, and Green, Schwarz, and Witten's superstrings, have significant theological overtones. This is to be expected of a theory of everything. The present author has independently been working on a theory of the firmament since 1977, a theory which took its present form in 1987. Since 1988 the three theories have been converging. With the recent generalization of superstring theory to massive superstrings, the firmament theory and superstring theories are as close as they can come without combining. The firmament theory presented here solves some of the outstanding problems of superstring theory, most significantly, what is the ultimate fate of a black hole."

When you say the rotation of the sun you mean the rotation of the universe right? The sun doesn't have it's own rotation.the rotation of the sun.
I read it, but it doesn't answer my question at all. If there is a gravity well balancing the gravitational pull of the sun, it would have a gravitational pull on the other planets as well. This would be observable even if it was made up of matter that only interacted via gravity.
This shouldn't be a problem.Basically Your planets are moving at twice the speed because they are moving at the speed of their own rotation and the rotation of the sun
Dr. Bouw has been working on his firmament model for years, now I don't really understand massive superstrings yet, but you seem to think that all of it is refuted with your paragraph?
What 3D program are you using? Is it free? Can I use it? I would like to model it as well. When I was younger I downloaded this free program called "3D Canvas" and did some pretty cool things with it, but it was too limited. I remember created animations and then converting them to .wmv format.
This shouldn't be a problem.
EDIT: You mean the rotation of the universe, right? Also, you mean the revolution of the planets?
Dr. Bouw has been working on his firmament model for years..
Then why has none of his work on this been published in a peer reviewed journal?
Which peer reviewed journal would be interested in publishing it? It's not like all articles are accepted by the journals themselves.
