...suspected, from phenomena upon our Earth, that the force which holds the planets in their orbits varied directly as their masses and inversely as the squares of their distances from the Sun. His reasoning was objected to or carelessly thrown aside, until he almost compelled belief... | |

...because the law carried within itself the conditions of variation — bodies tend towards each other directly as their masses, and inversely as the squares of their distances. Thus, in astronomy as well as in mechanics, the first and second movements of science became united... | |

...developed by Newton, bears sway in all those distant worlds. In them bodies attract each other with forces directly as their masses and inversely as the squares of their distances. There the laws of the emission, absorption, and transmission of light are the same as they are with... | |

...whenever it and the comets are near these nodal points at the same time. The law is that celestial bodies attract one another directly as their masses and inversely as the square of the distances between their centers. The mass of Jupiter is about 318 times that of the Earth,... | |
