But as I said, things are not just what they seem. We for instance
orbit the same star at different speeds. Those living on the equator
orbit the earth at a serious rate of knots faster than denizens of
California and Florida.

And here in Blighty, we Blighters traverse the skies at a somewhat
lower velocity.

But I digress.

Small deviations in the path of the moon from where Newtonian
Celestial Mechanics declare it aught to be are due to the centre of
gravity varying not with the centre of the moon (or the barycentre)
assumed from the three body problem, but from the position of the
various gravitational anomalies and the disposition of the inertia in
that three body problem:

It is a matter so complex as to dwarf the maths required to plot the
position of the moon using the methods developed from the end of the
19th century. And it is invariably explained using theories posed by
Albert Einstein.

However if the vibrations induced in such a motor as the earth moon
and sun is, causes the reaction known as weather and seismic
disturbance, the result should in some way related to fractals and
that picture linked to in the OP -and its replacement # :~))#.
