Ooh, you got me. Common sense and belief in God and the Bible, is my proof. But what got me started was being told that I’m riding on a marble that’s spinning 1000 mph circling the sun at 66,000 mph and chasing said star through the Milky Way at 450,000 mph, yet every night since the beginning of recorded history, Polaris is due north and that has never changed. Must be gravity.

Physics is hard (not really).

I believe in God, too.

Orbital mechanics outranks common sense. And sometimes, plain old Newtonian Physics really makes you wonder what you think you know. Would you like some lessons?

You should do a little reading on Polaris as “the North Star.”

It’s always been there for humans. But humans have only been here for a wink of the eye.
