Hi guys,

It looks that the Earth expands.

Can the expansion of the Earth be a case for new cosmology?

You might wait for it to become credible geology before you start looking for its implications on cosmology.
 
Hi Clicky,

We've actually had a discussion about this before, here in the Forums. Take a look at this Topic and see if it answers any of your questions. Or maybe you could have one of the Ubermentors bring it back to an active status. Although I'm not sure if it would be placed here or if they'll put it to bed (in "Debunk").
 
you da' man, Lurch.

of course, this reminds me that I owe some more debunking to that topic.

clicky - please see the link Lurch provided. thanks

Today at about 4:30 am I saw the conjunction of Venus and Jupiter, where they were about the width of the full moon, or one half degree apart. Did anyone else see it? Edit: The moon is 2,200 miles in diameter and at a distance of 240,000 miles. Thereby it subtends an angle in radians of 2,200/240,000=.01 (approximately). With pi radians being 180 degrees, one radian is 57.3 degrees, so that .01 radians is about .50 degrees (angle subtended by the moon). (.57 to be more exact, but with...
