Sun Arc Skewed
May 2004

Japan reports the Sun too HIGH at noon, while El Paso TX reports it too far EAST at noon, evidence of a leaning skewed globe. Wisconsin also finds the Sun arc too HIGH and NORTH at sunrise. And Seattle finds it too HIGH at Noon.

Per my software calculation, Sun Alt was 72degrees in Osaka, Japan but maker shows 77degs, so 5 degrees far to north. I took sun maker photo on May 8 at 12:03 PM. too HIGH
