29. A Scale Model Of The Solar System
    online Java applet This 3d solar system applet can be rotated and zoomed with the mouse. Below it are links to other online gravity simulators and resources for building solar system simulations.  
    http://www.burtleburtle.net/bob/physics/solar.html
    
    Extractions: This applet is the obligatory scale model of the solar system. Distance is in AUs, velocity in AUs per hour, mass in units of 10 pounds, yielding G=1.2944x10 . Initial positions are accurate to about 5 digits. The simulation doesn't account for relativity, oblateness of the sun, solar winds, asteroids, galactic gravitational flux, and any number of other things. The numbers in the corner count how many displays have been done and the fractional error in energy conservation. It starts 1am on January 1, 1999. To start or stop, click. To spin around the sun, click in the middle and drag. To rotate and zoom, click near the edges and drag. The sun remains in the center; there are no controls yet to change that, or to change the distance from the sun. I also have and applet description , some online references for how to build a solar system simulator, a set of stable orbits filling 3-space , a page exploring gravitation with Java , a simulation of Cruithne , and Klemperer rosettes sun mercury venus earth+moon mars jupiter saturn uranus neptune pluto The US Navy provides the coordinates of all planets now, and at any other time give or take a century. I used this for my initial coordinates. (Position is at 1am on January 1, 1999, and velocity is half of 2am minus midnight.)

On October 15, 1997, the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft , loaded with an array of powerful instruments, rocketed into space on a seven-year journey to Saturn and its vicinity. On July 1, 2004 Universal Time (June 30 in U.S. time zones), the spacecraft began orbiting Saturn for four years, flying close to several of its thirty-plus moons. The Huygens probe will separate from Cassini

35. The Copernican Model: A Sun-Centered Solar System
    A suncentered solar system had been proposed as early as about 200 BC by Aristarchus of Samos (Samos is an island off the coast of what is now Turkey).  
    http://csep10.phys.utk.edu/astr161/lect/retrograde/copernican.html
    
    Extractions: The Earth-centered Universe of Aristotle and Ptolemy held sway on Western thinking for almost 2000 years. Then, in the 16th century a new idea was proposed by the Polish astronomer Nicolai Copernicus In a book called On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Bodies (that was published as Copernicus lay on his deathbed), Copernicus proposed that the Sun, not the Earth, was the center of the Solar System. Such a model is called a heliocentric system . The ordering of the planets known to Copernicus in this new system is illustrated in the following figure, which we recognize as the modern ordering of those planets. The Copernican Universe In this new ordering the Earth is just another planet (the third outward from the Sun), and the Moon is in orbit around the Earth, not the Sun. The stars are distant objects that do not revolve around the Sun. Instead, the Earth is assumed to rotate once in 24 hours, causing the stars to appear to revolve around the Earth in the opposite direction. The Copernican system by banishing the idea that the Earth was the center of the Solar System, immediately led to a simple explanation of both the varying brightness of the planets and retrograde
