The best explanation for the shafts I've seen is in this pdf file. It's a good'un. You only need to read the first 4 or 5 pages. Harte Thanks for that, Harte. So now it is perfectly clear to me... it ain't clear to anyone! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harte Posted November 22, 2018 #228 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Seemed clear to me. Try just pages 3 and 4. The text isn't very dense. Harte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their arms weren't that long, you dolt. Besides, what did you think elbows were for? Harte 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't seem to fulfill any truly practical purpose. I still do rather like the explanation that they were to help the king's soul find the heavens, but even that purpose is not a certainty. Are the heavens a golden color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harte Here's the answer: Quote The sun is classified as a G-type main-sequence star, or G dwarf star, or more imprecisely, a yellow dwarf. Actually, the sun — like other G-type stars — is white, but appears yellow through Earth's atmosphere. source Harte 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Noteverythingisaconspiracy Posted November 28, 2018 #242 Share Posted November 28, 2018 The sun emits visible light at many wavelengths, but the part of the spectrum that emits the most energy is actually a colour that have not been mentioned yet: Green ! http://askanastronomer.org/stars/faq/2015/11/06/is-the-sun-yellow-or-white/ So you guys can stop bickering because you are all equally wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
