Didn't anyone see 2010? That's a big STOP sign...someone doesn't want us exploring any further out.

No Steve, that skull IS a Jesus.
Muahahaha!! |
Hold my beer.

I wonder what the Velikovsky-ites are making of it.

My theory is that it is not a hexagon but instead a static sine wave of 6 wave lengths. We see it as a hexagon because it is mapped on a circle. I created this image using the polar coordinates filter in photoshop Attachment 12224

Nice! I agree.
|
Slight that is an awesome explanation, thanks!
|
But what about the skulls?
|
Well, this was an interesting conversation, until Slight got all serious and fucked it up...
(Seriously...that's awesome...I never would have thought of that. Of course, I hated trig.) |
Wait, Photoshop has a polar coordinates filter? What's next? Path integrals?
|
A skull filter.

So what causes a 60 mile high sine wave around the pole? Does it extend to, or close to, the surface? Is the cloud mass greater, closer to the pole, causing a sine wave where the boundary lies?
That's the trouble with space, or science in general, every time you come up with a good answer, it just creates more questions. |
It's not a sine wave. It's the result of the viscous fluid (the atmosphere) lagging behind the spinning container (the planet)*. The shape is a ... mathematical coincidence. Rather, our perception of some meaningful pattern is the coincidence. The shape is just the math and physics.
* Or just lagging compared to the parts of the atmosphere that are spinning at different rates. Similar phenomena have been observed in the eyes of terrestrial hurricanes. I provided a good link above. edit: No, I haven't recently returned from a vacation on Saturn, Uranus (or anyone else's for that matter... ha ha) |
