Lets start at the beginning then. Is the apparent position the same as the actual position?

Don't think that I haven't noticed that you still haven't agreed to answer yes or no to my question.

As we've told you many times before, the apparent position of the sun is about 21 arcseconds lagged behind the actual position due to the earth's transverse velocity - in other words, Stellar Aberration.

So no, the Sun isn't exactly where it appears - it is about 21 arcseconds ahead of where it appears. which is nowhere near your claimed 7560 arcseconds (~2.1 degrees.)

Does that answer your question fully?

No because you are talking about the orbit of the Earth not the rotation of the Earth.

But at least you acknowledge that the apparent position is not the actual position which was my whole point in the first place.

You claimed that they were the same.

You are addression only one of at least three effects on the apparent position of the sun.
