How Eclipses Work: Solving the Three-Body Problem #science #physics
Nearly 3,000 years ago, the ancient Babylonians began one of the longest-running science experiments in history. The goal: to predict eclipses. This singular aim has driven innovation across the history of science and mathematics, from the Saros cycle, to Greek geometry, to Newton’s calculus, to the three-body problem. Today, eclipseContinue Reading
