Only an uninformed fool would made such a bogus statement. The GR correction is applied continuously everyday. Ken Seto

Which idea, there are several there. 1) all the elements in a star should orbit together 2) spectroscopic double stars show doppler shifts that are consistent for all elements 3) cepheids show different elements moving at different radial velocities wrt orbital/light curve phase. ..... >>> That kind of process could occur completely independently.

According to some, some of these are cepheid. According to HW, cepheids are binary(or more) stars, non ecipsing, non spectroscopy, but none-the-less variable, right? >>>>I have no idea what you are talking about at this moment. >>> >>> it's in the paper about RT Aur...speculating about the phase >>> relationship between radial v and brightness. >> >>are you talking about partial ionisation zones? >>are you talking about the phase lag between the stars maximum brightness >>and its minimum radius?

No. And I did not so assert. The phrase 'It is based solely on the notion that the Earth is the centre of the universe' is clearly an exaggeration and unjustified. Einstein made no such assumption, and furthermore you know this strawman has nothing to do with whether or not BaT is valid. The phrase 'There is absolutely no justification for its existence' is another strawman. Neither statement reflects well upon your ability to be objective and to do science. >>> The only reason SR was supported was because it appeared to prop up >>> the religious notion that the Earth was the centre of the universe. >> >>Since it made the speed of light equal to all observers, it did NOT prop >>up any notion that earth was the centre of the universe.
