September 27, 2012 - 1 New Downloads Stonehenge - An introduction to the concept of the Heavens' Hinge  Description: Stonehenge - An introduction to the concept of the Heavens’ Hinge
By Jonathan Morris CEng FIStructE FICE
This introduction shows the mathematics and engineering behind the storyline
of The Broken Stone and the secret of the Heavens’ Henge. The images in the
following text were produced using a three dimensional computer model
which was found to replicate the stones at Stonehenge as they may have been
when first constructed.
Stonehenge’s plan layout is shown to be the same as an idealised
geocentric description of the Universe. Its inner stone monument is
demonstrated to be capable of producing a spectacular public display of solar
movement. The arrangement of this system is shown to be based on a simple
method of tracking celestial objects.
The contention of this paper is that Stonehenge was both a depository of
knowledge about the Universe and a place of learning designed for popular
interest.
