You should always accept the simplest explanation unless the you dislike the implications of the simplest explanation, then you use complex math to fudge the numbers to something else.

that's the simplest way to prove that the earth is moving

Moving how?

Completely irrelevant. The Earth not moving is confirmed from experimental data. Doesn't matter how you shift the numbers around with equations if they don't match up to empirically confirmed reality.

this math seems to imply that space is non-Euclidean. do you have evidence to support that hypothesis.

Wow Nathan, this is a new level of idiocy even for you. What do you think seasons are? Physicists knew Earth was moving ever since the heliocentric model was made. Michelson's experiments weren't designed to check if earth was moving—everyone already knew that was true. Michelson's experiments were designed to test if earth was moving through the luminiferous ether, and the results indicated no.

Nathan, just what do you think a season is? You're basically two steps away from becoming a flat earther.

I think this was bait, but thank you

The system of equations you showed isn't actually too hard, within a years time they can be grasped. If you are curious, I suggest starting with

Thanks anon for the shit-thread. I see you're keeping the /sci/ tradition as always.
