The Sun Appears to be About the Size of a Quarter Held at Arm's Length. -ALSO- The Moon Appears to be About the Size of a Quarter Held at Arm's Length. -AND- The Shadow of the Earth Cast onto the Moon is The Same Exact Size...

Just Coincidence? Or is the Cosmos Trying to Tell us Something?

Only on Earth do the Three Most Important Objects In the Universe appear to be the same size... Remind me of the Celestine Prophecy... Watch for Amazing Co-incidences...

I started thinking about this while watching the Movie TRON Legacy... and the Digital Woman from inside the computer asked the Man from Earth... "What Does the Sun Look Like?" ...and He Replied... "I'm Not Exactly Sure... Because You Can't Just LOOK AT IT... That Would cause Blindness..."

OK... That's not an Exact Transcription of the Movie... but To Me... That was the Meaning...

and at the end of the Movie he Takes her to Earth and shows her a Sunrise While Riding a Motorcycle...

The Math: 

The Sun's diameter is about 865,370 miles. The Distance from Earth to the Sun is 93,000,000 miles.

(but it changes - Earth's orbit is NOT a Circle)

The Moon's diameter of 2,159.1 miles. The Distance from Earth to The Moon is an average of 238,900 miles. (but it also changes - The Moon's orbit is NOT a Circle) 

865,370/2,159.1=400.8 
93,000,000/238,900=389.2 

400 is pretty damn close to 389...
Remember: an Object that is 400 Time Larger but
is 389 times farther away would appear to be
about the same size... and this is not just theoretical - I have seen BOTH a Solar and a Lunar Eclipse myself...

Nicolaus Copernicus formulated a model of the universe that placed the Sun rather than Earth at its center. The publication of Copernicus's model in his book De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (On the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres), just before his death in 1543, was a major event in the history of science, triggering the Copernican Revolution and making a pioneering contribution to the Scientific Revolution.[7] Before Copernicus "Everyone" Believed the Earth was the Center of the Universe...

According to Edwin Hubble: It appears that Everything is Moving away from US... One model that fits this data has the Earth at the Center of the Universe... another Model supposes that no matter where you observe the universe from, everything is always moving away from everything else...

"The Hubble law implies that the universe is expanding.[11] A decade before, the American astronomer Vesto Slipher had provided the first evidence that the light from many of these nebulae was strongly red-shifted, indicative of high recession velocities."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwin_Hubble

Another Strange Coincidence... It Could Be that The Earth is at the Center of the Universe after all... or at least the SUN... 

There is an apparent correlation between the plane of the Solar System and aspects of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). It gives the plane of the Solar System and hence the location of Earth a greater significance than might be expected by chance – a result which has been claimed to be evidence of a departure from the Copernican principle as assumed in the concordance model.

What do you think about all this Strangeness???

Solar Eclipse 10/14/2023 8 AM to 11 AM California Time... and... A Major Cosmic Coincidence or is the Universe Trying to Tell Us Something?

DID YOU KNOW? The Sun appears to be about the same size as a quarter held at arm's length... and... The Moon appears to be about the same size as a quarter held at arm's length... and The Shadow of the Earth on the Moon is the Same Exact Size.

This is NOT TRUE for any of the Other Planets in Our Solar System...

Only on Earth do the Three Most Important Objects appear to be the same size...

Just Coincidence??? Or is the Universe Trying to Tell us Something?

Maybe that's How we Selected the Size of a Quarter!

another Cosmic thing I noticed... In the Movie "TRON Legacy" the Lady who had lived her entire life in the Artificial World inside the Computer asked the Hero:

WHAT DOES THE SUN LOOK LIKE?

Made me think... I certainly can't LOOK at the Sun with my Eyes because that Causes Blindness...

So... What DOES it Look Like?

I Believe it's a Yellowish White and is about the Same Size as a Quarter Held at Arm's Length!

Great Movies: TRON and TRON Legacy. Science Fiction that takes us inside a computer to a Stunning Fantasy World. Computer Graphics Masterpiece...and... Great Biography: "For the Love of Spock." Movie about Leonard Nimoy. Interviews with everyone from Star Trek, His Family and Friends...and...The Movie "Star Wars: Return of the Jedi" was filmed near Crescent City.

The Original TRON was filmed in 1982 when the first computer graphics were possible. Fantastic Special Effects and an Interesting PLOT! Partially filmed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory at the Shiva Nuclear Fusion experiment. The Computer That Sucks Jeff Bridges in is at the LAB... He is sitting at a Terminal and His Body Gets Scanned...

TRON Legacy visits the same world with 2010 Graphics...
The Son goes inside the machine to rescue his father... And Then "The Girl" (Olivia Wilde) asks a Cosmic Question... "What Does The Sun Look Like?" - Think about that for a Moment... YOU CAN'T LOOK AT THE SUN WITHOUT DAMAGING YOUR EYES... therefore you have NEVER  ACTUALLY SEEN THE SUN... Therefore No One Knows What The Sun LOOKS LIKE! Because the Words "LOOKS LIKE" refers to describing something you have seen... Wow, COSMIC

Great Biography: "For the Love of Spock." Movie about Leonard Nimoy. Interviews with everyone from Star Trek, His Family and Friends.

Directed by his son Adam Nimoy. An intimate portrait of Father and Son... Made me think about my own Father...

A look behind the scenes at who was Leonard Nimoy and why Star Trek was important. Also a look into the vast quantity of other work he did... Broadway Musicals, Records, TV Shows, Movies, Photography and being a Father to his Son and Daughter.

One thing about Star Trek was that Many Different Races worked together to build a better future... That's a worthy goal today...

Leonard Nimoy acted as an advocate and activist for COPD, frequently posting on social media to educate his followers about COPD and the dangers of smoking. Tobacco killed him in 2015.

OTHER GREAT MOVIES

I especially like visiting the Redwood Forests of Northern California. The Movie "Star Wars: Return of the Jedi" was filmed near Crescent City.

The Ewok Villages and the Forest Moon of Endor. The flying motorcycle scenes were filmed by having the Stedicam Inventor, Garrett Brown walk thru the woods following the path they travel... and then Industrial Light and Magic bluescreened in the Actors and Flying Motorcycles...

On Highway 101 traveling North from Eureka, just past Trinidad, there is a rest stop with a paved footpath that looks just like the movie... A little imagination and you can hear the little teddy bear people singing and playing the drums...

The TRUMP Effect: US SUICIDE RATE HIGHEST SINCE 1945. If Our Glorious Leader is Doing Such a "Wonderful" Job, Why are So Many People Killing Themselves?

Trump's Legacy: Suicide, Opioid Overdoses and Alcoholism have Increased Dramatically in the Last Two Years... Deaths of Despair caused by Decrease of the Quality of Life. Increased Farmer Foreclosures. Increase of Workplace Fatalities due to Reducing OSHA Enforcement.

WORKPLACE FATALITIES RISING UNDER TRUMP OSHA AS ENFORCEMENT DECLINES

Washington, D.C.—Workplace fatality investigations are at decade-high levels under the Trump administration, at the same time that worksite safety enforcement by the administration’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration is steadily declining, according to an analysis of recent government data released today by the National Employment Law Project. The data also revealed that OSHA now has the lowest number of health and safety inspectors in the agency’s 48-year history.

https://theaggie.org/2019/01/18/life-and-death-in-trump-country/

After 11 continuous years of increase, America’s life expectancy decreased from 78.9 years in 2014 to 78.6 in 2017.

 Since 1999, the country’s suicide rate has increased by 33  percent. The CDC reports that in 2017 alone, 47,000 Americans committed suicide, while another 70,000 people died from drug overdoses, 80 percent of which were related to opioid abuse.

Economics professors Anne Case and Angus Deaton first discovered a disturbing trend among non-college educated, working class, white Americans in 2015; they were dying prematurely at astonishing rates.

https://www.citylab.com/life/2018/03/the-unhappy-states-of-america/555800/

The overall results show a nation where well-being is in sharp decline. From 2016 to 2017, America saw its largest year-over-year drop in well-being in the 10 years that Gallup has tracked these data.

Life expectancy tied to voting choices in last U.S. presidential election.
Voters in counties where life expectancy has declined in recent years were more likely to vote for Trump, a new study suggests.
