From: oriel36 on 19 Jul 2010 16:08 The first time those images of the Fomalhaut system became available,they blew me away given that the star's offset position generates a default elliptical geometry within a circular framework - http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/fap/image/0507/fomalhaut_hst_wf.jpg Considering that it is now possible to make direct orbital comparisons with another solar system doesn't seem to bother those who are still stuck in the late 17th century.What the results do show is the AU distance assigned to Fomalhaut b can't possibly be correct as Kepler's original formulation of the proportion between an orbital period and orbital radius must align and this is what give me the hint that something was wrong with Kepler's original proposal as orbits become more telescoped from the Sun.It allows for variable orbital speeds but it is the elliptical geometry that is problematic as the images of the Fomalhaut system demonstrates an offset Sun and a planet that appears to travel in a circle rather than an ellipse - http://www.phys.ncku.edu.tw/~astrolab/mirrors/apod_e/ap081114.html Is there any physicists in the house that can bother to check ?.oh,that's right,you have important wordplays to discuss !.
