About this episode
A tour through celestial mechanics—from Newton's gravitation and Kepler's laws to the intricate three-body problem, perturbation theory, and Lagrange points. We explore inertial frames and heliocentric coordinates, how precise predictions drive spaceflight, and how relativity and chaos theory pushed physics forward.
