Reddit reviews A Little Book of Coincidence: In the Solar System (Wooden Books)

There is a fascinating book that deals with this topic and other planetary "coincidences" called A Little Book of Coincidence. The premise is that there are many, many of these phenomena in nature which have no apparent purpose and cannot be explained, but instead of approaching them from a mystical/snake oil fashion, it is explored through geometry and math.

Thanks for defending this post. /r/conspiracy is the place for controversial topics and I really think there's nothing wrong with this material.

I'm not sure why everyone is complaining that this post is suggesting that the moon "isn't real"...it's just there are far more mysteries about it than modern science is willing to admit.

For a brief overview of mathematical craziness in our immediate space, I highly recommend A Little Book of Coincidence in the Solar System.

Holy cow I wasn't prepared for the material presented there.

There's a time and place for LIBOR and the NSA, but there's a much grander universe out there that's just waiting to be deciphered and marveled at.

No need to get so upset.

First, this is calculated with the perihelion. The closest point.

Second, no matter how your ass feels, it still stands that the length of the orbits can be calculated to 99% using these diagrams. It isn't saying 'this is the shape of the orbits', it's saying here's how you can calculate the distance traveled, with extreme accuracy.

And third, the orbits are spirals, as the sun is moving as well.
