APPENDIX A1. A BRIEF HISTORY OF CHAOS 804

Kepler’s Rudolphine tables had been a great improvement over previous ta- bles, and Kepler was justly proud of his achievements. He wrote in the introduc- tion to the announcement of Kepler’s third law, Harmonice Mundi (Linz, 1619) in a style that would not fly with the contemporary Physical Review Letters editors:

What I prophesied two-and-twenty years ago, as soon as I discovered the five solids among the heavenly orbits–what I firmly believed long before Appendix A1 I had seen Ptolemy’s Harmonics–what I had promised my friends in the title of this book, which I named before I was sure of my discovery–what sixteen years ago, I urged as the thing to be sought–that for which I joined Tycho Brah´e, for which I settled in Prague, for which I have devoted the best part of my life to astronomical contemplations, at length I have brought to light, A brief history of chaos and recognized its truth beyond my most sanguine expectations. It is not eighteen months since I got the first glimpse of light, three months since the dawn, very few days since the unveiled sun, most admirable to gaze upon, burst upon me. Nothing holds me; I will indulge my sacred fury; I will triumph over mankind by the honest confession that I have stolen the Laws of attribution golden vases of the Egyptians to build up a tabernacle for my God far away from the confines of Egypt. If you forgive me, I rejoice; if you are angry, I 1.

Berry

Writing a history of anything is a reckless undertaking, especially a history of A1.1.1 Three-body problem something that has preoccupied at one time or other any serious thinker from ancient Sumer to today’s Hong Kong. A mathematician, to take an example, might Bernoulli used Newton’s work on mechanics to derive the elliptic orbits of Kepler see it this way: “History of dynamical systems.” Nevertheless, here comes yet and set an example of how equations of motion could be solved by integrating. another very imperfect attempt. But the motion of the Moon is not well approximated by an ellipse with the Earth at a focus; at least the effects of the Sun have to be taken into account if one wants to reproduce the data the classical Greeks already possessed. To do that one has A1.1 Chaos is born to consider the motion of three bodies: the Moon, the Earth, and the Sun. When the planets are replaced by point of arbitrary masses, the problem to be solved is known as the three-body problem. The three-body problem was also I’ll maybe discuss more about its history when I learn a model to another concern in astronomy. In the Newtonian model of the solar more about it. system it is possible for one of the planets to go from an elliptic around the —Maciej Zworski Sun to an orbit that escaped its dominion or that plunged right into it. Knowing if any of the planets would do so became the problem of the stability of the solar (R. Mainieri and P. Cvitanovi´c) system. A planet would not meet this terrible end if solar system consisted of two celestial bodies, but whether such fate could befall in the three-body case remained unclear. rying to predict the motion of the Moon has preoccupied astronomers since antiquity. Accurate understanding of its motion was important for deter- After many failed attempts to solve the three-body problem, natural philoso- T mining the longitude of ships while traversing open seas. phers started to suspect that it was impossible to integrate.
