Good.
One needs to focus.
Happy new year.

[Vo]:An update on my on-going Kepler research efforts

2015-12-31 Thread Orionworks - Steven Vincent Johnson
After having been kicked out of Dr. Mills Yahoo Classical Physics group
earlier this year I came to the realization that I should probably spend
more time focusing on my own personal research work rather than wasting
endless hours indulging in circuitous conjecture that never gets resolved.
Resolution will only happen when (and if) Dr. Mills can pull his CHIT
technology together and demonstrate a working prototype that generates
electricity from the breakdown of water, some powdered metal, and the CHIT
catalyst. After that defrocking, combined with some additional
self-reflection I decided to unsubscribe from Vortex as well. This
additional self-imposed banishment was also done to help encourage me to
redouble my efforts to work on my on-going Kepler project. That I have done.

 

As 2015 comes to an end I decided to briefly re-subscribe to Vortex... just
long enough to give a brief update to the Collective on how my research is
going. So. here goes:

 

Back in October I experienced a minor epiphany concerning my Kepler
research. It occurred at my local Noodles and Co restaurant while scarfing
down a chicken Caesar salad. I was pouring over some Mathematica generated
graphics depicting plotted orbital positions and accompanying velocity
vectors. I suddenly noticed an interesting correlation having to do with the
two foci that make up a typical elliptical orbit. My epiphany came from
looking at the following link over the duration of several years. See:

 

http://www.physics.csbsju.edu/orbit/orbit.2d.html

 

These simple Mathematica graphics were generated from the physics department
of College of Saint Benedict (Saint John's University) located in Minnesota.
Besides Wikipedia, additional useful resources for understanding much of the
physics behind Orbital Mechanics can be found at:

and

The subtle information pertaining to my personal epiphany is embedded in the
geometry of the Mathematica diagrams. It's related to how we apply "Kepler's
equation" in order to plot the position of planets traversing an elliptical
orbit. The new information isn't obvious at first sight. In fact, it took me
years to notice the startling new correlation. As best as I can tell none of
these orbital mechanical websites have carried through and rearranged the
geometry of some of these Keplerian diagrams in a manner that I think Kepler
would have eventually found himself doing had he lived long enough to do so.
Based on my own research I think it wouldn't have taken Kepler not all that
much more observational powers to have discovered three more Keplerian laws,
additional laws that are just as important as the 1st, 2nd law and 3rd laws.
What stopped Johannes was the eventual morality we all must face: Short
lives. and perhaps not having sufficient computing power at his quill to
plot out a few additional theoretical orbits to verify certain suspicions he
may have speculated about.

 

As we all know Kepler's 1st law of planetary motion states: "The path of the
planets about the sun is elliptical in shape, with the center of the sun
being located at one focus. (The Law of Ellipses)" Over the centuries there
has been conjecture as to what might be happening at the other (empty) foci.
Does this seemingly unused focal point exhibit any kind of particular
Keplerian law of the same caliber as Kepler's 1st law? As best as I can tell
nobody has managed to uncover a unique Kepler law that specifically uses the
other empty foci in an exclusive manner similar to Kepler's 1st law. Over
the centuries respected researchers have puzzled over this enigma including
Richard Feynman. You can view some of Feynman's ponderings on the matter out
at:

The best representation, to date, that I know of that tries to employ the
other "empty" foci is the string tied into a loop method which is then
placed around two separated thumbtacks. The two thumbtacks represent the two
foci of a hypothetical ellipse arrangement. This allows one to trace out an
ellipse when a pencil is placed between the two tacks and the string is held
tight. It's quite clever in all honesty! Nevertheless, this arrangement does
not reveal anything exclusive as to what the empty foci might reveal in its
own right, similar to what Kepler's 1st law reveals. I confess, WHAT THE
EMPTY UNFILED FOCI MIGHT REVEAL HAS BEEN AN OBSESSIVE CURIOSITY THAT HAS
SUCK WITH ME FOR, FOR DECADES. And now, in my early 60s, I think I have
managed to uncover the mystery of what the so-called empty foci represents.

 

I admit it is probably arrogant for me to say this (and it's still possible
I may be proven wrong) but I believe I know exactly what kind of information
the empty foci reveals - in Keplerian terms. In order to explain it in
Keplerian terms I believe it will be important for me to establish three
additional honorary Keplerian laws. The first two of these new laws are
based o
