In case you haven't noticed my conversation with Henri, I will tell
you.

I have been asking Henri over and over for the equations to his theory
to make it something other than handwavy nonsense. He refuses - every
time.

If the person in the crowd is north of the merry-go-round,
he will always appear to be north of the merry-go-round.
Never east or west or south. Nomatter how fast you are
moving.

You didn't say anything to explain your assertion that an
object far outside the Milky Way would appear to be in a
completely different direction from its actual direction.
All you did was vaguely describe by analogy the fact that
finite light travel time means that foreground objects
have moved since the light we see left them. That, of
course, is well-known to every astronomer.

The distance of a distant object has no bearing on light
travel time from foreground objects.

My apologies for taking so long to respond. I let myself
be distracted by other things. If you want a week's
extension of the time limit, I will be glad to grant it.

Of course.

Although, as stated later, the Galaxy has actually rotated
only about 20 times since it formed.

How stable do you think the form of the Galaxy is?

Do you think that it would take more than 20 rotations to
achieve its present spiral shape? If so, why?

Why?

A ctually, thius is quite a complex problem if you want to consider the finer
details of air flow around the whistle itself.

I should imagine that there would be no doppler shift if that was ignored.
There is no radial velocity.

It would make an interesting experiment.
