mass ; transportation became accelerated, and the rapidity of 
rotation became 68*5 times that of the sun. If we thus 
might find the whole planetary mass in 172 R distance, it 
would rotate 68*5 times more rapidly than the sun. But as 
the mass remains in the perihelion of revolution 1*05 nearer, 
rotation becomes — 
68-5 
1 '05* 
= 62*5, 
or so much more rapidly rotates Jupiter than the Sun. As 
the mass now circulates to the aphelion, and passes here 
i-ro25 2 beyond its ideal position, rotation becomes 1-1*025* 
of that of the perihelion, or Saturn revolves only — 
62*5 
1*025 2 
more rapidly than the Sun. 
But the mass did not merely circulate between those two 
central parts in cycloidal form ; it was projedbed to 77*3 r 
and 17,680 r from the Sun. Could the conical extremes now 
keep up in transportation round the Sun with the central 
masses, and return to them ; or had not mass to tear off on 
either side and to unite round poles, — that is, reversing 
points ? Where now the translatory velocity in more and 
less was as 1*72 to the mean one, there the mass had to 
separate, — consequently in a solar distance of — 
1169 r 
1*72" 
= 397 r, 
and 11,69 r x 172 2 = 3448 r, here beyond Mars, there this 
side of Uranus. 
These tearing-off masses concentrated round projected 
points. We find, as their points of gravitation for the in- 
terior system — 
77*3 y : : 39 7 r=iy 6 r solar distance ; 
for the exterior one — 
3448 r : : 17,680 = 7808 r . 
The interior system, projedbed by Saturn, is repulsed ; the 
exterior one, projedbed by Jupiter, is re-attradbed by the Sun. 
An image of the process may be found in a comet which 
points with a small cone sunward, its substance flowing
