Entire issue: Pp. 481-607 4 plates. <br/><br/><em>First printing of Darwin's famous paper including the abridgement published two years later which contained the first systematic search for periodic orbits and work on the three body problem. "The paper which had taken him three years to complete contained the numerical calculations of periodic solutions of the restricted three body problem together with a discussion of their stability. It provided not only extensive details of the numerical results but also a full description of the mathematical methods used to obtain them." Barrow-Green Poincaré and the three body problem P. 194. Darwin was introduced to the three body problem through the works of Poincare. Following his accession to the Plumian chair Darwin delved even more deeply into the problems of the origin and evolution of the solar system making numerous investigations of the figures of equilibrium of rotating masses of fluid and later making extensive studies of periodic orbits in the restricted problem of three bodies carried out with special reference to cases obtaining for the particular values of the mass ratio of the two finite bodies of 1:10 and 1:1048 the latter approximating the mass ratio of Jupiter to that of the sun.

Clean and fine. <br/><br/><em>First printing of a main work by the "Father of Geophysics" in which he set up the hypothesis that the results from his earlier investigations on the relations between the tidal frictions on the earth and the motion of the moon away from the earth could be used to explain the formation of satellites of the other planets and their movements in relation to the sun. In DSB it is called "a monumental paper"."Darwin's most significant contribution to the history of science lies in his pioneering work in the application of detailled dynamical analysis to cosmological and geological problems. That many of his conclusions are now out of date should in no way diminish the historical interest in his experiments nor the importent service thet he rendered cosmogony by the example he gave of putting various hypotheses to the test of actual calculations. Darwin's method remains a milestone in the development of cosmogony and subsequent investigators have favored it over the merely qualitative arguments prevalent until that time."DSB. </em> unknown
