And yet again, you don't understand what a science model is.  You think a
science model is an animated .gif of a bunch of spinny things.  In
science, a model is often expressions and math.  For example, F=BIL is a
mathematical and science model of a current carrying wire in a magnetic
field at right angles to it. Multiply the magnetic field strength B by the
current I and the length of the wire L (actually the cross product of the
B vector and the length L, times I) and you get the force F.  You can
(should) have a diagram of the setup to help understand the setup, but the
diagram isn't the model itself.

Engineers use that model to design electric motors.  And guess what? The
model works, so so does the electric motor!

No, that was an incorrect model of the solar system.  It was incorrect
in part because it was based on common sense.  Common sense says the
earth is stationary and the sun goes around it once per day.  (Do you
feel like you are spinning at hundreds of miles per hour?)

>Do able,

And we have excellent models!  But they are what science calls models,
not cutaways of internal combustion engines in children's museums, and
not animated gifs of spinny things.

And I see very little similarity.

And observation of spectrums from galaxies tells us that is wrong.
And go see a shrink about your precessing spinny thing OCD.

>What does YOUR model predict?
>(Fuck all)

Science models predict how nature behaves.  And in so many cases does an
excellent job at doing so.  (Do electric motors work?)
