LESSONS IN ASTRONOMY. III. 



HISTORY OF THE SCIENCE (continued) KEPLER'S SECOND AND 



THIRD LAWS GALILEO INVENTION OF THE TELESCOPE 

 NEWTON LAW OF UNIVERSAL GRAVITATION. 



BEFORE proceeding to consider the other laws discovered by 



Kepler which govern the motions of the planets, we must just 



pause to explain ono or two astronomical terms which we shall 



frequently meet with. The 



sun, as we have seen, is 



situated in one of the foci 



of the ellipse in which any 



planet revolves ; it is clear, 



therefore, that the distance 



between them cannot always 



be the same. 



Let s (Fig. 2) represent 

 the position of the sun, and 

 A B c I the orbit in which 

 the planet moves ; it evi- 

 dently is much nearer to the Fig. 2. 

 sun when at I than when it 



has moved on in its course to M. From this cause we find 

 that Mercury and Venus sometimes recede to a much greater 

 distance from the sun before they begin to retrace their stepa 

 than they do at other times.
