2017 Total Solar Eclipse We are told the moon orbits earth once every 27.3 days and therefore the Earth completes 27.3 of its 24-hour west-to-east rotations for every one lunar epicycle. From the perspective of the sun, the earth is rotating 27.3 times faster than the moon is crossing in front of the earth's surface. How then is it possible for the shadow of the moon to cross North America from west to east? Think about it.

Why are the light rays from the sun angled down to a sharp point in this bullshit diagram? We all know that sunlight travels in parallel lines which would make the shadow of the moon on the earth over 2000 miles wide not 70 miles wide as what actually happens. This must be explained but will never be explained because the fools that conjured up this heliocentric model hate the truth and think the whole world is stupid enough to believe their lies. Their time of deception is coming to an end.

At 93 million miles from earth and 92.75 miles from the moon the suns rays are parallel, 99% of all divergent or convergent rays would not reach the moon or earth at that distance. Therefore there would be no umbra as shown in your diagram demonstrating converging photons from the top and bottom portions of the sun. Optically from earth the sun and moon appear to be the same size in contrast to your diagram of a very large sun. Also any shadow cast from an object like the moon would cast a shadow at least the size of the object, no shadow can be cast smaller than the object itself in this case the moon's shadow against the earth. There is only one possible way we can see the eclipse traveling from west to east with a 70 mile wide shadow. Keep in mind too the moon's orbit is from east to west and the moon being 238,000 miles away and making a revolution every 27.3 days the moon would only be traveling at 2,288 miles/hour. There is only one answer for a 70 mile wide shadow for a solar eclipse totality traveling from west to east.
