In ancient times the solar system was thought to be the whole Universe, so the study of planetary motions was cosmology. ... The planets other than the Moon and Sun generally move West to East through the stars, but occasionally stop and move in the opposite direction ( retrograde motion). In order to explain the retrograde motion of the planets, the geocentric model of the Solar System shown above puts the planets on small circles called epicycles . ...

. Comment on J0405+3803 . Our image contains a feature of 25 mJy at 14 mas E-NE from the brightest component. It is not visible in the Caltech-Jodrell (CJ) survey image at 5 GHz (Xu et al. 1995) obtained about 6 years earlier. The 1.6 GHz CJ image (Polatidis et al. 1995) does show an extended feature close to the position in question, but somewhat displaced toward west. VLBApls home page . Last modified: 16 Oct 2000
