In the 6th part of the Mahābhārata series, I'll present evidence on why astronomy simulators aren't suitable for dating epics. NASA's ephemeris moon data and eclipse data diverge from reality pre-1800 CE. Simulator makers themselves don't guarantee reliability due to earth's and moon's unpredictable movements. The error margin is 10% by 500 BCE. Just imagine the errors 5000 years ago!
Unfortunately, these commercial, hobbyist simulators are used for serious research in India, specifically for sensitive research like Mahābhārata dating. Please watch the video and share widely.
