The Sun is estimated to be about a distance of 34,000 light years distance
from the center of the galaxy. According to the rotational period of the
galaxy, the Sun--at a usually estimated velocity of about 220km/s--orbits
the galaxy once every 250,000,000 years (the longest estimate given).

Here is the problem. Center of the Milky Way galaxy to the so-called Big
Bang horizon is a radius somewhere in the range of about 12 to 14 or more
billion light years in straight lines out in every direction from the center
including straight through the almost circular orbit of the Sun around the
galactic center. Within that vastly greater radius is the radial distance of
the Sun (in light years) from the center of the galaxy, or 34,000 light
years. Pi(r^2)=3,629,840,000 light years for circuit distance to be traveled
(where radius equals 34,000 light years). That circuit distance figure
divided by 250,000,000 years equals 14.51936 times the speed of light for
the Sun's velocity in orbit of the galaxy when disregarding the internal
rotational periodicity of the galaxy--which itself is an isolation of this
galaxy by astronomers, cosmologists, and physicists, from the universe at
large. When not just simply disregarding the synchronized whole of the
observable universe at large--when one refuses to isolate the galaxy from
the universe as if the universe doesn't have anything to do with this galaxy
in this picture of Sun's velocity--the velocity of the Sun in orbit of the
center of the galaxy radically changes from 220km/s to 14.5 times the speed
of light through the circle, through the circumference, of the orbit.

Now if one wants to include the entire universe as orbiting at
mind-boggling speeds faster than the speed of light around the center of
this galaxy--as the center of the whole universe in rotation around our
galactic center, then the speed of the Sun in orbit of the center of the
galaxy drops to 220km/s with regard to the entire universe as well.

Jan Oort and everyone since looked only inside to the "spacetime
continuum" existing in the distance between Sun and center of galaxy never
bothering to coordinate the radius and distance of circumference and the
time of one complete orbit with the universe outside of this tiny picture
taken entirely in isolation from nearby Andromeda, say, and the whole rest
of the universe with it outside the internal rotational periodicity. Between
Andromeda's center, for example, and the center of our galaxy is the
bisection that is the nearly circular circumference (3,629,840,000 light
years) of the Sun's orbit of the center of our galaxy 34,000 light years in
radial distance out from the center. Take the two as two fixed points to one
another, even add a third for the blackhole center of the next nearest
galaxy out in distance from the Milky Way for a fixed triangulation of
center points, in doing this dropping the internal periodicity of the Milky
Way, radically speeds up orbital velocities for each complete orbit through
the distances of circumferences--such as the Sun's.

Of course in doing this the way I did it, I fixed the speed of time
(250,000,000 years) to the speed of light (for a ratio of 1 year to1 light
year, or one year of time equals one light year's distance in space), since
so many figure the speed of light is the speed of time or there would be no
"spacetime continuum" otherwise. I just divided distance to be traveled in
the line of the circle by the preset time of travel (gleaned from galactic
periodicity) to complete one circuit. I moved up one level of coordinate
point surface and looked from it back and down at the Sun's orbital distance
and velocity from a frame of reference of more dimensions. I added greater,
larger, dimensionality to the picture already [partly] dimensioned and the
Sun's velocity within the greater total dimensionality took a quantum leap
upward.

Where did you learn geometry? Circumference = 2 * pi * r, not pi * r^2.
That gives a circuit size of about 214,000 light years.

If you do the math right, you don't get bizarre answers.

You are right. I got to wondering why, when I read about the drift of the
Sun in its orbit of the galaxy above and below the plane seems to follow
over a seeming 3-dimensional global surface area of galaxy that looks to be
close, if not the same, figure(s) as the estimated 1-dimensional radius of
the universe. Then, tired, I went far too far out in backing back through
looking for why. That it why I threw it out here.

Now tell me why 4pi(r^2) would not be the surface area of the Sun's
seeming 3-dimensional drift from the 2-dimensional plane. Also, tell me why
when seen from a greater, and ever greater, distance away the Sun will
appear to back up through its positional histories, going in reverse through
the circle. It cannot and will not stay in its position in positional
history or move forward. The distance in space and time between true
position, or position here and now, and this false positioning will magnify
geometrically. It will look like the Sun is moving faster than the speed of
time, of light, through history, left or right through the plane, and up or
down perpendicular to the plane, whether one is closing or opening the
distance in space, shrinking a triangulation between traveler's position,
true position of the Sun, and false positioning of the Sun, or opening the
triangulation (expanding or contracting the globe). Only one factor will
change in the changing geometry and it will change either positively or
negatively in an accelerating manner.

Still, this was not the way to go about it. Weinberg said a new math was
needed, not a radical distortion of old math.

(4pi(r^2)) and (1pi(r^2)) are of the same order.

Your welcome.

I would urge you to attempt to think EVEN harder than you already have.

Thinking harder never hurt anyone (... not seriously, anyway).

Like most, you are thinking in a 1-dimensional line circle you draw on
paper with a pencil, not a space-time orbit in the universe. We are already
told by astronomers that the Sun is now riding above the plane of the galaxy
from having ridden through the plane from below the plane. There isn't a
straight line anywhere in its travel and it reminds me more of a space-time
diagonal line being drawn around and along a torus shaped orbit of the
galactic center than the single line that it has [proved] it is not. The
distance, side to side, up and down, and [diagonally] forward, through the
plane in space covered is titanically greater than a single pencil drawn
straight-line (you might call it) circle on an unfolded, unrolled, never
folding or rolling, sheet of paper around the galactic center. The time
remains precisely the same though because that is calculated upon the
relative forward-motion periodicity with regard to the plane (alone) of the
galaxy observed from here involving the other stars of our galaxy. If you
straighten out the nearly toroidal line of travel, the space covered in the
line of travel by the Sun will probably square--and I gave it that squaring.
We are dealing in enormous amounts of space-time and time here, the Sun
orbiting a torus--so to speak--while at the same time orbiting the galactic
center. We are not dealing in small units of pencil-line radius and circle
drawing upon a flat sheet of paper (1-dimensionally spatial, 1-dimensional
in space, alone).

Meanwhile, all this is simultaneously occurring [around] a single point
(our galactic center) that should include in the picture the factor of many
points like it for triangulation and coordination, specifically the galactic
center of Andromeda and other nearby galaxies that might help to erase
periodicity from the picture. They are not included in the picture
concerning our actual velocity and should be. The spatial shape of the Sun's
orbit, and thus the space and time velocity figure, are based entirely on
intra-galactic periodicity and pencil and paper 1- and 2-dimensionality. It
is you and those like you who cannot see in, or deal in, more than the 1-
and 2-dimensional picture concerning the Universe (the Multiverse) at large.
So you end up searching for nakedly singular Big Bang beginnings and
unfathomable [stuff] in your 'relative universe' like "dark matter" and
"dark energy." You get ever smaller minded, your universe gets ever more
inertly tyrannical and catastrophic, ever more relativistically savage and
anarchic, with all passage of time you are unable to climb up and out of
such 1- and 2-dimensional [superficial] thinking. Such a mindset can only
end up curving into itself, circling and spiraling into itself, to ever more
insane results (specifically, insane visions of insane universes). The worst
of all is that this relativistic mindset, nee "relativism," has become the
state religion of half the world's states, if not more than half. Their
state philosophy and ideology. Their psychotic state psychology. Your "grand
unification" to 1-dimensional tyranny, savagery, and anarchy, couldn't
result in a "darker age" for the world. Your reduction (reductionism) to
"lowest common denominator" couldn't result in any possible darker age than
this last century continuing inexorably on into this one.

Hawking was dead wrong. Philosophy and cosmology, and physics, are still
utterly unified (merged): unified (merged) all too well in a
totally...Satanistic, totally...'relativistic',
totally...'totalitarianistic', totally 1-dimensional "BB" ("Big Bang" ("Big
Brother")) mindset.

You very apparently do not have a mind large enough, broad enough, deep
enough, either to "unfold" the Universe or to "unfold" the galaxy within it.

The rationalization of the year! :-)

I think you will make a lesser fool of yourself if
you simply admit your blunder and leave it at that.

BTW, don't you understand how utterly nonsensical
it is to say that a distance is the square of a distance?
The numeric result you get is entirely dependent on
the arbitrary choice of unit.
Measure the radius in megaparsec, and the numeric value
of pi*r^2 will be ca. 0.0003.
3000 parsec is less than the radius!
