Planet X: EQUINOX Slowed FACT


Please note the TREND chart (http://www.zetatalk.com/usenet/use00860.htm)
which most dramatically shows the result of the following analysis done 
by Mr. Precision himself (who became interested in this subject when he 
noted his clocks and watches a tad fast by x seconds year to year, lately, 
and who the heck notices that - only Mr. Precision, himself.).  I murmurred 
something about doing an analysis of a the 80’s, as well as the 90’s, to see
if the trend line changed, and off he went ...  Bottom line, the time it
takes the Earth to line up for the Equinox MOVED, a SLOWING TREND since
1950, as follows:

The trend for the last 52 years (1950-2001) is +1.12 sec/year
The trend for the last 42 years (1960-2001) is +0.92 sec/year
The trend for the last 32 years (1970-2001) is +3.43 sec/year
The trend for the last 22 years (1980-2001) is +7.99 sec/year
The trend for the last 12 years (1990-2001) is +31.2 sec/year

DEFINITE PROOF THAT THE EARTH’S ROTATION IS SLOWING FASTER THAN THE LEAP
SECONDS YOU’D BEEN LED TO BELIEVE REPRESENTED THE SLOWING RATE!

From Mr. Precision, the Equinoxes Analysis:


Note: If one compares the dates and times between the two sites from
1990-2001 one will find only one minute of difference for one of the
reported years.  Not enough to change the shape of the following curves.
Because of the amount of variation in data points from year to year, a
large number of points was needed to get a good average and see the
current trends.

The trend for the last 52 years (1950-2001) is shown as a +1.12 sec/year
(chart)
The trend for the last 42 years (1960-2001) is shown as a +0.92 sec/year
(chart)
The trend for the last 32 years (1970-2001) is shown as a +3.43 sec/year
(chart)
The trend for the last 22 years (1980-2001) is shown as a +7.99 sec/year
(chart)
The trend for the last 12 years (1990-2001) is shown as a +31.2 sec/year
(chart)

If one now takes the left half of each trend line and strings them
together for the appropriate number of years that they would apply to
then one gets. (chart) This curve changed to seconds (of change) from
year to year then gives: (chart at http://www.zetatalk.com/usenet/use00860.htm). 
The times are trending to become longer between Equinoxes.

Assumptions for these graphs:
1) That the times reported for Equinoxes during 1950 to 2001 is close to
   observable facts and not just a formula reporting an estimation that
   never gets checked with observation.
2) That numbers beyond present time are suspect, and defiantly from an
   estimation program, thus not worth plotting or looking at.

The best way to measure earth's slowing is by daily accurate telescope
measurements of some fixed object in the sky or by long wave radio
interferometer of distance radio sources and several receivers on earth
that measure the changing nodes with angle.  What we need is to have a
way to get access the results of this kind of data.  The above analysis
was interesting but did not get us direct data on earth's daily
rotational slowing.
