Q4    However, there are some celestial bodies that exhibit very slow
rotation or no apparent rotation due to a phenomenon called tidal
locking. Tidal
locking occurs when an object's rotation period matches its orbital period
around another body. This means that one side of the object always faces
the other body, while the opposite side always faces away. The best-known
example of a tidally locked celestial body is our Moon, which always shows
the same face to the Earth.
The Q & A  features get tidal locked so that some page fillers are done,
without reading them in depth.  Anything must be read completely and then
should go to print, which is useful at the age of 80 as well as the
knowledge should be useful By reading about the trains , let it be his
hobby, but 80 year old what will he do, if the one driver runs it all along
or many drivers do it or some sleep on the bench or cushion cot?. At 80 a
person needs , how to plan the temple trip, for which no one was bothered
to reply; but writing about the world over, without really whether it is so
etc or some frozen ice in England , does it matter?. When taking any
serious subject like Vedas, Religion, science factors, history , so many in
nature, one must first absorb what it is; and then bring it on record . so
that , when someone is quizzing, they can properly project their thoughts.
Because 10 flippers are pulled out ,that too , relating to a decade back,
and placing all of them, taking some patriot answering for his soil, as the
raison-d'etre , must preactivated Indian mind, whether -will it be correct
to degrade oneself?. And the blasphemy would be, unaware of own culpable
homicides, charging others as such and prostrate, where , the descriptions
, given are accepted, without any raison-d'etre. Both remind me Vadivelu
jokes in a film, keeping on repeating the sentences converting it as
question.
       Now does he know what is tidal lock and when it does occur>; and if
the slow speed of the moon is because of that how come it takes such a
short time to rotate self and the EARTH ?. Tidal lock in itself is a MAYA
concept; that can be a misleading appearance, as the planet we are seeing
appears to standstill. In case one were to take a look from SUN the
mercury, the mercury will appear to be standing still. But no material in
space can anchor and lead a life. Even if we are thrown into space, as
alive or dead, we  may have to rotate for our balance from gravitational
pull; and we may have to revolve others, , because of the gravitational
pull. When planets are too close ( normally moons only will be closer to
the parent planet, so moon is cited as tidally locked. Boy Mercury and SUN
also are locked . Where the speed is differential, for self and rotational
around the nearby planet, we feel the moon or the close planet as FLAT so
SAME PHASE. We see from earth only 59% of the moon. Moon takes 27 days for
self rotation and 27.33 days for coming around the earth. So aswini faces
the earth . The next day, Bharani. So on thus 13.33 degrees per day.
360/27=13.33. But all rotations are not exactly in a circle but elliptical.
So there is bound to be variation on each day. There is  wobbling on the
moon and many other planets also. So that will also alter the surface. The
axis rolling and elliptical rolling will vary every certain number of
years. 3.8 million years ago the moon movement was different. Once the moon
had 28 days so we had 28 stars once. The same phase does not mean the same
area. From earth we won't be seeing only delhi@ marked A everyday.
Generally farther from the planets , the whole shape will be visible;
closer we are, only the flat surface will be visible. Tidal locks means
that both the perceptions are locked in the milky ocean tides , so our
perception dupes our eyes.  Without such details, a cat copying the words
from BBC , does not explain anything to the audience. Your answer makes a
lay man feel , every day I will be seeing only the same place Delhi-NO SIR.
That is what I am telling you, please do not enter the arena without
learning , since many things appear only with new information, to you at
80.
Q7    Again this stuff MARSUPIAL. It is a big subject in Zoology.
Unlimited marsupials do exist on earth.   Marsupial means having a pouch.
Like Kangaroo , Opossum, which I wrote some time back here etc etc. Darwin
cannot match the theory that the Brahmam is visible from this species,
spread all over from Australia to the USA. Some Marsupial females do not
get into the concept of ovum break and creation @ termed the period at all.
Some female marsupials have 3 vaginas and 2 uteruses. Premature births in
cycle are happening in these types. As a matter of fact, heavy research is
going on to study human ovulation ,postponement theory etc. Marsupial is
not just one animal which only the answer gives, because the copy cat does
not want to study well but wants to be in the ring somehow as a tail-dryer.
He accepted my LKG title but not sukha brahmam.
Q9   Matt Rigsby in the fray again. Neither hot nor east africa, Yesterday
only I wrote the latest civilisation find, so close to africa, was so
senior to Africa; and indian Vedas do teach better spectrum. One who does
sradha and Gaya must not accede to east and south africa even for gossip,
because he is spreading the wrong history to the posterity. Matt Rigsby has
no background history so he can do but not G.
Q10      Devuda Please save the King. And if any member still reads such
fantasy really , well, we have just started as a kid only. Is barbed wire
used only in WWII?; can thick cloth be the same as wire?. In the sangam
period fort had AGAZHI ; was that substituted by thick clothes?. War is won
by the imaginary applications , if one reads the history since inception.
What were cluster bombs?. Barbed wire is a system which was different in
various years in history. May be 4000 AD may have another concept. Lets not
react we are too smart. KR IRS  22323
