If the sun was one inch away or one inch further..
    #18737733 - 08/21/13 02:20 PM (10 years, 6 months ago)

I heard we would either freeze to death or burn to a crisp. Which brings me to my next question.
What is the mathematical probability that the sun is in the EXACT right place due to the big bang?

I don't believe it. How do we explain the change of seasons then? The tilting of the Earths axis has to put us closer or further from the Sun. Unless the changing of the seasons is explained by the angle that the sun light hits us.

Nature sure is complicated.

The Earth isn't in a perfect orbit around the Sun.. It varies by far more than an inch.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way.
I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today.
Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.

That is why life evolved. Seasons are created by the earths tilt and atmosphere.  Doubt it's as little as on inch

I understand that it moves closer and farther during orbit but what I meant is if the sun itself moved from its normal position during earths orbit  I have heard we would all freeze or burn to death

The goldilocks zone, which constitutes a habitable distance between a planet and its nearest star, spans millions of miles.


To give it an exact distance is pure idiocy, since there are dozens of other variables in play.


Thats like saying a cup of water at a given temperature will boil at 1 degree warmer or freeze at one degree colder. Wrong shitbird.

You understand the earth moves much more than an inch or two away from the sun as it orbits.  But if the Sun moved the same amount of distance, it would be catastrophic?

Is that what you're saying?

Yeah seems pretty obvious that it would take more than just inches.

PLahahahahahhahahahh fuckin' a this is usually reserved and said by Christians or other religions that say god put the earth in a special place


During perihelion, earth is 91,445,000 miles (147,166,462 km) from the sun. It occurs around January 3.

During aphelion, Earth is 94,555,000 miles (152,171,522 km) from the sun. It occurs around July 4th

So that's a variation of around 3 million miles
