Center of mass
Yes but relative to what? This is what I can't figure out.
In the case of the earth moon system they are both moving relative to the center of mass. But i may come back to Mach's Principle.

Wrath?
I think this thread kinda ground to a halt anyway. I wish Eta had chimed in with something though.
Besides if we are talking about my good buddy Ned I don't mind wandering way off topic.
Now we'll both get warned (or worse) by someone.
