The Elements Of The Four Inner Planets And The Fundamental Constants Of Astronomy is a book written by Simon Newcomb in 1895. The book provides a detailed description of the four inner planets of our solar system, namely Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. It includes information on their orbits, rotations, and physical characteristics.Apart from the planetary details, the book also covers the fundamental constants of astronomy, such as the length of the solar year, the distance between the sun and the earth, and the mass of the sun. These constants are crucial for astronomers and scientists to make accurate calculations and predictions about celestial objects.The book is written in a scientific and technical style, with mathematical equations and diagrams to explain the concepts. It is aimed at astronomers, astrophysicists, and anyone interested in the study of our solar system and the universe.Overall, The Elements Of The Four Inner Planets And The Fundamental Constants Of Astronomy is a valuable resource for those seeking in-depth knowledge about the inner planets and the fundamental constants of astronomy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Reseña del editor
The diversity in the adopted values of the elements and constants of astronomy is productive of inconvenience to all who are engaged in investigations based upon these quantities, and injurious to the precision and symmetry of much of our astronomical work. If any cases exist in which uniform and consistent values of all these quantities are embodied in an extended series of astronomical results, whether in the form of ephemerides or results of observations, they are the exception rather than the rule. The longer thisdiversity continues the greater the difficulties which astronomers of the future will meet in utilizing the work of our time. On taking charge of the work of preparing the American Ephemeris in 1877 the writer was so strongly impressed with the inconvenience arising, from this source that he deemed it advisable to devote all the force which he could spare to the work of deriving improved values of the fundamental elements and embodying them in new tables of the celestial motions. It was expected that the work could all be done in ten years. But a number of circumstances, not necessary to describe at present, prevented the fulfillment of this hope. Only now is the work complete so far as regards the fundamental constants and the elements of the planets fromM ercury to Jupiter inclusive. The construction of tables of the four inner planets is now in progress, those of Jupiter andS aturn having already been completed by Mr. Hill. All these tables will be published as soon as possible, and the investigations on which they are based are intended, so far as it is ijracticable to condense them, to appear in subsequent volumes of the Astronomical Papers of the American Uphemeris. As it will take several years to bring out these volumes, it has been deemed advisable to publish in advance the present brief summary of the work.
