I'm afraid not. The laws of general relativity do not accommodate such random forces. The earths orbit is consistent on an elliptical plane.
How do we know the earth's orbit is consistent on it's elliptical plane when our whole solar system is/may be hurtling through space pehaps encountering all sorts of pulling/tugging forces

Someone pointed out earlier that the fact that the ESA was able to land a probe on a comet is a pretty good indication that everything in the Solar System is where it should be and that there aren't any unknown "pulling/tugging" forces acting on anything.
There is also New Horizons, quickly approaching Pluto. It will pass within 8,000 miles of an (ex) planet after traveling 3 billion miles. That isn't an accident and if there were and if there were any "pulling/tugging" forces acting on anything it wouldn't be where it is (which is right where it is supposed to be).
Why is it so hard to believe that refraction occurs in the Earth's atmosphere?
So you agree that the tilt of the Earth has not changed. Good, because it hasn't. The Sun rise and set exactly where they are supposed to where I live.
No, I don't buy that explanation. But just because anthropomorphic global warming is bunk, that does not mean that the atmosphere is static.
Who said the Inuit are lying?
IMO I have much more confidence in the Inuit elders who have no reason to lie, versus the anthropomorphic global warming crowd who have every incentive to lie.
The Sun and Moon are in their correct positions. The Moon is not tilted any different than it has been for a very, very long time and it's "horns" are pointing where they always do, away from the Sun. The orientation of the "horns" has nothing to do with the Moon's "tilt".
The Sun and Moon are indeed out of position and the moon also tilted.
It has been mentioned. It has also been mentioned that earthquakes cannot alter the tilt of the Earth. www.abovetopsecret.com...
I dont know whether it has been mentioned here already but it was not only the Chile earthquake which is supposed to have altered the tilt of the Earth, but the Fukushima one is supposed to have done it also.
What science reported a shift to the tilt?
If as you all say, the planets and stars being observed through telescopes would have changed their relative position, then either you are incorrect or the science which reported a shift to the tilt is incorrect. You cannot both be correct.
Of course it has nothing to do with showing that the Earth's tilt has not changed. It has to do with showing that there are no significant unknown outside forces acting on the spacecraft.
Spacecraft going out on missions get their trajectory altered as a matter of course, so the fact that they arrive at their destination is more a matter of accurate driving during the course of the journey rather than showing that the Earth's tilt has not changed.

Wrong Pole. The Nazi's are of the Penguin and the Inuit are of the Polar Bear.
