If anyone thinks 2.5 cm per year is trivial than what does that say about Hubble's law on the universe's inflation rate. We believe that Pope Urban VIII is alive and well and lives on the internet.

Spiral! yes that is what the moon is doing 2.5 cm each year prograde. Ref: http://www.astronomy.com/asy/default.aspx?c=a&id=2195 Most artificial satelites are spiraling retro grade.

I am not sure of the distintion between helik and spiral. positions are plotted with time as well as x,y and z but I suppose that is hard to depict on paper without using a spirograph.

All satalites move about primaries that are moving also. If the positions of the two bodies were ploted over time These plots would resemble a spiral. Sorry I live in a universe that has at least four dimentions not two.

YES. What one isn't?

All orbits in this universe are spiral.
