Seasons start and end on specific days. These are fixed moments according to earth-solar events.

This is a case of the two of you talking past each other. You are both saying the same thing in belief that you are somehow in disagreement.

The dates of the seasons are dependent variables. Planetary orbits and rotations are independent variables.

Into the Night is correct that we humans arbitrarily declare dates, with our decisions being based on the earth's year, which is fixed and determined by the earth's orbit around the barycenter.

Harvey is absolutely correct that the weather on any given future day will be unknown and will not somehow feel obligated to behave in accordance with what we humans have decided to call a particular day.

James__ is absolutely correct that I should drink less coffee than I do and that I am not being a good Mormon.

And Harvey, I think I've posted before that a better solar panel should be pursued or even hydrogen power. The current design that solar panels use is a passive system. It does nothing to pull or remove heat from atmospheric gasses. That's getting into more advanced physics but then I am wanting to change atmospheric chemistry and physics.
And the funny thing is, there might be a way to do it. Kind of why I take an interest in science. With "perpetual motion", it might be a way to relate an understanding of the conservation of energy. It would be cyclical just as any atom, molecule, etc. is. I guess in a way it's about understanding how systems work.

You want a machine to take thermal energy out of the air and concentrate it? See your local air conditioner installation company.

BTW...these things require power.

I'll give some examples and you tell me which ones are scientific dates and why:

March 4, 1903
September 19, 1772
April 2, 808
June 3, 44 BC
June 3, 44 million BC

Unfortunately, no. Heat is not related to kinetic energy. You know that a baseball's temperature does not change when you throw it because the change in kinetic energy does not alter any flow of thermal energy.

If the temperature of a baseball when thrown does not change, then that means there is no atmosphere. A shuttle on reentry heats up for the same reason. It's called friction because there is an atmosphere.

p.s., when we convert heat into kinetic energy, then we can convert that kinetic energy into force. And if you want to accelerate something like a rocket launching a shuttle into space, then that force can be realized as thrust.
See how simple this is? It's not like it's rocket science.

Irrelevant. If you throw a baseball in a vacuum, the temperature still does not increase, yet the kinetic energy increases.

If you increase the temperature of a baseball, it's velocity does not change ... ergo it's kinetic energy does not change.

Kinetic energy increases yet temperature does not change.
Temperature increases yet velocity does not change.

There is no relationship, there is no dependency, one does not affect the other.

James___ wrote:p.s., when we convert heat into kinetic energy,

Heat is not a form of energy. Heat is a flow of thermal energy from one body of matter to another.

By the way, you never answered my question, probably because you just missed it.

Why do comets have tails? Don't tell me all of that kinetic energy is causing it to heat up.

I need to come out of the closet and admit that I go through one of these every month ... just like a good Mormon.

Not tea and crumpets. Coffee and bacon-wrapped wings.

Oh, just as a sidenote, the British do tea and biscuits, ... or tea and scones, or just tea, but not tea and crumpets so much.

Ozone depletion to date would have been greater if not for the historical increases in CO2 and CH4.

When a comet is closer to the sun the tail "grows" because the increased temperature increases the rate ice falls/breaks off.

Scientists think that a halo of dark matter surrounds the Milky Way, extending out far beyond its visible edge, as occurs at other galaxies.

Harvey, and we're back to what the IPCC has said and NOAA accepts. Okay?

Ozone depletion to date would have been greater if not for the historical increases in CO2 and CH4.

It's ODSs that are having a negative impact on the ozone layer. An example is that CCl4 which is banned chemical is still at 10% of preban levels. Its source is not known.
With imports, would it be such a bad thing if some of the supply chain were moved to Central and South America? And who knows, people might start losing the desire to migrate to the US.

We really can't be sure of that unless we observe comets not bound in a solar system. When Halley's Comet is moving away from the Sun, it's traveling 65%
the speed of light. This would decrease the effect of both solar radiation and the solar wind by 2/3rds. Has this been observed?
Of course this ratio can be modified depending on the angle of ascent back into the outer part of our solar system.
