inferable evidence that to the Eye of Sauron the One Ring is a glowing star even though while near the ground or under the horizon he can only locate the Ring by means of the irradiating mind of an eventual wearer, in particular of a wearer who tries to control the Ring or who happens to be in a place he is focusing in? In any case, why would Sauron bother about creating the Eye of Sauron instead of, say, the Ear of Sauron so as to probe the rumour of the earth from the vast resonating vaults of the stone foundations of Barad-dûr? Does that choice has any relation to the fact that he did not designed the One Ring to produce sound pulses, but instead to shine in the darkness of his world? And if the spirit Sauron can fly from Númenor carrying his Ring isn't the airspace surrounding Mordor the easiest place for him to retake it? After all he is still almost without a physical self and could arguably easily abandon it at will. Wasn't that part of his strategy?
