When I say "easy to spot" what I assume you'd gather from that is that it is easy to precieve. Especially combined with words like invisible and "patch of darkness".
How is an object that orbits close to the sun "easy to spot" in the night sky?
I also want to know this. Seems quite contradictory to me
Furthermore, I'd like to know how we can see the moon at all. In school and university I've learnt that the moonlight is just a reflection of the sunlight which sounds plausible but however this doesn't work if sun and moon are in the same orbital plane. The moon would always be invisible, it would be completely dark at night, there would be no lunar phases, etc.
I'd really like to know this
Let me try to answer for the FEers...
Again, the Sun (and the Moon) do not orbit, so they have no "orbital plane". Perhaps, just "gear plane" or "plane" would be the best terms.
According to Rowbotham's Earth is not a Globe, the Moon shines by its own, harmful, light. (I have posted a extensive critique of EnaG that shows EnaG is inherently flawed and worthless.)
According to the "other site", it's caused by self-luminous life, that grows and dies with the Moon's phases.
So, if you expect a reasonable, consistent answer, I fear you're going to be disappointed.
Also, I strongly suggest that you discount Vauxhall's post. He has the basics of FET wrong. The Moon causes solar eclipses in most "flavors" of FET, not the "AntiMoon", and definitely not the "Shadow Object".
Best wishes in getting decent responses from FEers.
