Theories Of The Universe And Celestial Motion
The article surveys historic ideas on the universe, from early geocentric views to later heliocentric concepts. It explains planetary motion, the zodiac, days months and years, and the roles of sun and moon, with references to Thales, Anaximander, Pythagoras, Plato, Hipparchus and Ptolemy, ending with the Ptolemaic system and eight celestial shells. It notes contemporary notes and a local update about Uncle Riley Kane and Pen Denny.
