Yes but because we are only 1 AU away from the sun the movement due to orbit is important
noon today will be noon tomorrow in one full day (or a full rotation as heliocentric folks would call it)
I’m confused.
My father left me for a gas station seven years ago. . .
and that was me
Ngl, Astra, this is hitting close to home.
anway youre trying to overcomplicate it. it is a trick, as you are predicting
of course what we see and know is true is that every day is 12 hours
I was getting alcohol
sorry 24 hours
@republicus I'm not over complicating it at all, there are many minor variations in position due to things that occur over vast periods of time, such is the nature of the generally understood (shill) model of the universe
but in the heliocentric model the answer is rediculously only possible that in 182 days (complete rotations) would be MIDNIGHT
Many reductions in complexity, such as "a day is 24 hours exactly" is done precisely because it is accurate enough for it's purpose. Even then we have leap years to deal with the differences
Astra is just a bully lmao
lmao, Im a bully
Well you like to pick on people
Lmao

Does anyone know how you get verified mainstream?
yep
Yikes
just stick around in verification vc
youre calculations would have to account for 12 hours difference every 6 months. but of course that does not happen, obviously. our watches still count 24 hours each day
@republicus yes because we choose to calculate days as 24 hours for ease, differences in time to the solar day are accounted for after the fact
@republicus would you rather have that constant shift in time or just affix the time system to be reliable?
youre still not getting it. in the globe earth model it MUST be midnight exactly 182 days from noon on one day
of course we know 182 days from noon today will be noon on that day
Actually that’s wrong.
That’s why leap years are a thing.
no
Extended periods of light, yes
lol this is simple
@Ætos yeah sorry I'm not smart enough to articulate what I'm trying to say, I don't know what he is arguing
No such thing as a pure 24 hour cycle, cosmologically. If you want to be technical and use 24 hour cycles exclusively, then you basically are just stating a random fact.
you need pictures in your books. let me draw it
Too bad you can’t post images.
