The Net Advance of Physics: CELESTIAL

CELESTIAL MECHANICS:

General: Introductory:
- Measuring the eccentricity of the Earth orbit with a nail and a piece of plywood by Thierry Lahaye [European Journal of Physics 33, 1167 (2012)]
General:
- Net Advance RETRO: Celestial Mechanics: Works from the 18th and 19th Centuries, most still very relevant.
