    Are you saying that in no way shape or form, does the moon and its affect on the earth and earth-moon barycenter not influence the solar barycenter?

    Id accept no way worth caring about, but as an absolute?

      You seem to be saying that the earth-moon barycente can be logically referred to as just ‘the moon’ ?

        The earth does however indeed orbit the moon (or technically they both orbit a common centre between the earth and the moon).

        Heres you referring to the Earth moon barycenter as just ‘the moon’

          You’ve got me there, but by logical extension you are now saying the celestial body the ISS orbits is …the moon?
