This non-fiction work will open your mind to some of the less publicized aspects of our Solar System. Old territory covered by the formulas of people Like Johannes Kepler and Isaac Newton is not the source of this discussion. The Author provides mathematical formulas on the mechanics of the Solar System that are new to this area of Solar System discussion. The speed of light is for the first time ever offered with a cause and an explanation as to why it is as academics measure it. A means by which academics can double-check the results of their observations mathematically is provided with many examples. The Author demonstrates his opinion as to why miles are the unit of measure for the Solar System and not kilometers. Using miles the real mechanics of the Solar System come to life in this book. The Author provides his solution to the probable basis for the planets revolutions around the sun and a formula for calculating a planet or a moons equatorial surface velocity of rotation in miles per second. The probable minimum circumference of the System is disclosed and the means by which it was determined is fully discussed. An area dealing with the mass of objects expressed in "miles mass" is discussed as opposed to Newton's laws providing the mass of objects in kilograms weight. There is much new ground here.
