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 . ...

... The most important consequence of orbital eccentricity for the evolution of rotators can be understood without detailed calculations, and suggests the existence of two different types of binary systems separated by a critical eccentricity, (Gnusareva and Lipunov, 1985)[ 56 ]). ... Therefore, for a small part of its life the rotator will be in a mixed EP-state, being in the propeller state at periastron and at the ejector state close to apastron. ...
