In the above simulation, the Earth is shown in blue, the Sun in red. The Earth moves on a lemniscate (green) that rotates about its short axis; the Sun similarly moves on the rotating orange lemniscate. The resulting orbits are mathematical circles, the Earth's blue and the Sun's red. In this simulation, these orbits have the same center, but are not in the same plane. Seen from the Earth, the Sun rotates around the Earth as it does in normal astrophysics (not shown separately).
