Scientific paper

The concept of Stonehenge I as an accurate predictor of eclipses can be criticised on the grounds of inadequate short-term precision, unnecessarily good long-term tracking of the lunar nodes, and irrelevance to cultural needs. A more practical application of the astronomical characteristics of the structure is that of lunar apogee tracking, which would allow prediction of minimum tidal disturbance to cultural communication across the North Sea and English Channel.
