Excerpt from The Planetary System: A Study of Its Structure and Growth
The failure of Newton's analysis to serve in generalization explains why Bode's law of the planetary distances and the Similar laws which gov ern the spacing of the satellites in their several systems still stand as merely empirical expressions without any physical foundation. These laws are, in truth, the laws of the structure of those sys tems, and until we know the physical basis upon which they rest, we can not hope to explain why the systems are so arranged. Moreover, it seems probable that if we were able to explain Bode's law and the laws of the satellite systems we might then find easy steps to an explanation of the growth of such systems. In any event, we can hardly hope to reach a full explanation of their growth until we have first explained their structure.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the Moons stability of motion, its relation to the solar system, and its broader place in the universe. The authorâs fresh interpretation of Isaac Newtons analysis of satellite stability challenges prevailing theories, attributing the Moons stability to determinism rather than chance. By presenting their findings in the context of broader astronomical history, the author reveals contradictions between accepted understandings of the solar system and the true nature of celestial bodies. The authorâs work is a unique and profound contribution to the field of celestial mechanics, opening up new avenues of inquiry into our understanding of the universe.
