I get my best professorial reply I says the Doppler shift and and it planets
the Doppler shift and and it planets
the Doppler shift and and it planets don’t orbit their host stars the planet
don’t orbit their host stars the planet
don’t orbit their host stars the planet and the host star orbit a common center
and the host star orbit a common center
and the host star orbit a common center of gravity which is not centered in the
of gravity which is not centered in the
of gravity which is not centered in the center of the star so while the planet
center of the star so while the planet
center of the star so while the planet does this which you can’t see it’s too
does this which you can’t see it’s too
does this which you can’t see it’s too dim this this this the host star does
dim this this this the host star does
dim this this this the host star does this the kind of jingles like that so
this the kind of jingles like that so
this the kind of jingles like that so I’m describing all of this and I went
I’m describing all of this and I went
I’m describing all of this and I went home called everybody mom Papago watts
home called everybody mom Papago watts
home called everybody mom Papago watts on the evening I go home and that I
on the evening I go home and that I
on the evening I go home and that I watched the evening news and all they
watched the evening news and all they
watched the evening news and all they had of me was me doing this so I said oh
had of me was me doing this so I said oh
had of me was me doing this so I said oh they don’t want my professorial reply
they don’t want my professorial reply
they don’t want my professorial reply they want a soundbite and I said I will
they want a soundbite and I said I will
they want a soundbite and I said I will never be sound bitten again I’m gonna
never be sound bitten again I’m gonna
never be sound bitten again I’m gonna hand them a sound bite that will fit in
hand them a sound bite that will fit in
hand them a sound bite that will fit in their time slot so I went home and

so now we’re tracking the orbit of Uranus you should know this is not
Uranus you should know this is not
Uranus you should know this is not following Newton’s laws it’s got some
following Newton’s laws it’s got some
following Newton’s laws it’s got some deviation so maybe we found the limits
deviation so maybe we found the limits
deviation so maybe we found the limits the distance limit over which Newton’s
the distance limit over which Newton’s
the distance limit over which Newton’s laws would apply that’d be interesting
laws would apply that’d be interesting
laws would apply that’d be interesting but other people said the Newton was so
but other people said the Newton was so
but other people said the Newton was so badass it must work okay even there so
badass it must work okay even there so
badass it must work okay even there so instead of suggesting that his law was
instead of suggesting that his law was
instead of suggesting that his law was failing clever people said maybe his law
failing clever people said maybe his law
failing clever people said maybe his law applies but there’s yet another planet
applies but there’s yet another planet
applies but there’s yet another planet out there that we’ve yet to discover
out there that we’ve yet to discover
out there that we’ve yet to discover whose gravity is tugging on it and we
whose gravity is tugging on it and we
whose gravity is tugging on it and we did not include that in our calculations
did not include that in our calculations
did not include that in our calculations so let’s do the math and ask where must
so let’s do the math and ask where must
so let’s do the math and ask where must there be a planet of what mass to create
there be a planet of what mass to create
there be a planet of what mass to create the deviation that we measure and those
the deviation that we measure and those
the deviation that we measure and those calculations were done and they were
calculations were done and they were
calculations were done and they were published and an observatory in germany
published and an observatory in germany
published and an observatory in germany got hold of those calculations and they
got hold of those calculations and they
got hold of those calculations and they looked in the exact spot of the sky sky
looked in the exact spot of the sky sky
looked in the exact spot of the sky sky that the calculation said neptune was
that the calculation said neptune was
that the calculation said neptune was waiting to be discovered right there it
waiting to be discovered right there it
waiting to be discovered right there it was a triumph of Newton’s laws and so so
was a triumph of Newton’s laws and so so
was a triumph of Newton’s laws and so so this gives us confidence we’re not to
this gives us confidence we’re not to
this gives us confidence we’re not to pull in this act we calculate this and
pull in this act we calculate this and
pull in this act we calculate this and the observations show it so now watch
the observations show it so now watch
the observations show it so now watch what happens we have better and better
what happens we have better and better
what happens we have better and better measurements and we find out Newton’s
measurements and we find out Newton’s
measurements and we find out Newton’s laws failing Mercury’s orbit is not
laws failing Mercury’s orbit is not
laws failing Mercury’s orbit is not following what it should that’s the
following what it should that’s the
following what it should that’s the closest planet to the Sun well we’ve
closest planet to the Sun well we’ve
closest planet to the Sun well we’ve been down that path before just throw in
been down that path before just throw in
been down that path before just throw in another planet that we can’t see and
another planet that we can’t see and
another planet that we can’t see and that’ll fix it so thus was introduced
that’ll fix it so thus was introduced
that’ll fix it so thus was introduced planet Vulcan
planet Vulcan
planet Vulcan this would be a planet very close to the
this would be a planet very close to the
this would be a planet very close to the Sun so closer to be hard to see you’d be
Sun so closer to be hard to see you’d be
Sun so closer to be hard to see you’d be lost in the glare and so there was the
lost in the glare and so there was the
lost in the glare and so there was the hunt for Vulcan no one found it but we
hunt for Vulcan no one found it but we
hunt for Vulcan no one found it but we knew it had to be there because that’s
knew it had to be there because that’s
knew it had to be there because that’s the same problem as the discovery of
the same problem as the discovery of
the same problem as the discovery of Neptune Einstein comes along comes up
Neptune Einstein comes along comes up
Neptune Einstein comes along comes up with his theory of motion and his theory
with his theory of motion and his theory
with his theory of motion and his theory of gravity the special and general

theory of relativity out of those two
theory of relativity out of those two theories which are corrections to
theories which are corrections to
theories which are corrections to Newton’s laws in these extreme regimes
Newton’s laws in these extreme regimes
Newton’s laws in these extreme regimes if you’re near the Sun the Sun is very
if you’re near the Sun the Sun is very
if you’re near the Sun the Sun is very strong gravity if you’re moving around
strong gravity if you’re moving around
strong gravity if you’re moving around and that’s strong force of gravity
and that’s strong force of gravity
and that’s strong force of gravity Newton’s laws begin to fail and no one
Newton’s laws begin to fail and no one
Newton’s laws begin to fail and no one knew this and you look at Einsteins laws
knew this and you look at Einsteins laws
knew this and you look at Einsteins laws and he says Mercury’s orbit will not

and he says Mercury’s orbit will not follow Newton’s laws that will follow
follow Newton’s laws that will follow
follow Newton’s laws that will follow this other path find out and it exactly
this other path find out and it exactly
this other path find out and it exactly explained the deviations of mercury and
