Abstract

Zusammenfassung Si observationes astronomicae ceterique numeri, quibus orbitarum computus innititur, absoluta praecisione gauderent, elementa quoque, sive tribus observationibus sive quatuor superstructa fuerint, absolute exacta statim prodirent (quatenus quidem motus secundum leges Kepleri exacte fieri supponitur), adeoque accitis aliis aliisque observationibus confirmari tantum possent, baud corrigi. Verum enim vero quum omnes mensurationes atque observationes nostrae nibil sint nisi approximationes ad veritatem, idemque de omnibus calculis illis innitentibus valere debeat, scopum summum omnium computorum circa phaenomena concreta institutorum in eo ponere oportebit, ut ad veritatem quam proxime fieri potest accedamus. Hoc autem aliter fieri nequit, nisi per idoneam combinationem observationum plurium, quam quot ad determinationem quantitatum incognitarum absolute requiruntur. Hoc negotium tunc demum suscipere licebit, quando orbitae cognitio approximata iam innotuit, quae dein ita rectificanda est, ut omnibus observationibus quam exactissime satisfaciat. Etiamsi haec expressio aliquid vagi implicare videatur, tamen infra principia tradentur, secundum quae problema solutioni legitimae ac methodicae subiicietur.
