Occultation - Antares and Moon 28th September 2006 photo Don McDonald

Subject: Don. Colour of moon’s surface grey or gold? Here is why!

 


Sci.astro.amateur, alt.math

250 BC astronomy or C.21. ‘back-to-the-future’,

Observation 1/ moon’s apparent diameter equals little finger nail = 0.5 degree.

Observation 2/ Intensity of moon equals daylight sky.

Hypothesis 3/. 105,050 moons would cover a hemisphere, lighting Earth with equal of Sun’s radiance.

Propositions 41/42/43.
Archimedes’ textbook, Euclid 1897?, On the sphere and cylinder. (book 11.)

Don. “Area of Compass Circle on a Sphere, O.”
A = PI X*X. (SAME AS PLANE!)
New Zealand Mathematics Magazine, 25 (2), [1988.].

“Don.Lotto birthday greeting nz”, Google groups.

“A= PI. C X C “ extremely extr rare.
= 1,16,9,3,24,3 (base 27.)
letters A=1, Z=26, 27^raised to 6th = 3^18 = 9^9th.
(Prophetic.) A. Einstein, EL M C X C..

My number plates, SERIES (3.14), C.21 (21st century.)

RELATIVE Luminosity Sun + Moon ~ 2/ (2 sin .125 degree)^2.
= 105,050 = 12.55 magnitudes.

Five (5 magnitudes difference) = 100 x luminosity.
(Definition.)
Ex. (sin .25) ^-2 = 52,525.25 = 52E5/99.

Mag. Diff. = 5x log base 10 ( sin .25 deg ) = 11.8.
