Henceforth: Correspondence). This is the challenge Hooke presented to Isaac Newton (1642-1727) in a short but intense correspondence in the winter of 1679-80, which set Newton on course for his 1687 Principia, transforming the very concept of "the planetary heavens" in the process (Herivel, 301: De Motu, Version III). 1 It is difficult to overstate the novelty of Hooke ‘s Programme • The celestial motions, it suggested, those proverbial symbols of stability and immutability, werein fact a process of continuous change: a deflection of the planets from original rectilinear paths by "a centraU attractive power" (Correspondence, li, 313). There was nothing necessary or essential in the shape of planetary orbits. Already known to be "not circular nor concentricall" (ibid. ), Hooke claimed that these apparently closed "curve Line[ s ]" should be understo | | 出版日期 | Book 2002 | | 关键词 | Celestial mechanics; Isaac Newton; Planet; Robert Hooke; celestial motions; horology; microscopy; practical | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-017-2223-0 | | isbn_softcover | 978-90-481-6067-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-017-2223-0Series ISSN 0068-0346 Series E-ISSN 2214-7942 | | issn_series | 0068-0346 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2002 |
