(→ said what the nine were, since every account states the shortfall and none of them lists it. the fixed stars, the five planets, the sun, the moon and the Earth. the Fire is the centre and is not one of them, which is where most of the confusion comes from)
• cur | prev 2013 an editor (talk | contribs) . . (1,395 bytes) (+210) . . (→ the eclipse motive has been pressed again and is a good deal stronger than the textbooks allow: lunar eclipses at dawn and dusk are hard to get on this model with one dark body. Aristotle's number-mysticism is still plausible. the article should not pick and does not)
• cur | prev 1990 an editor (talk | contribs) . . (1,185 bytes) (+180) . . (→ filed with the phantom planets and that is wrong. Vulcan was seen, or said to be. this one was never claimed as an observation by anybody, which is a different fault and arguably not the worse one)
• cur | prev 1861 the Mud Geometer (talk | contribs) . . (1,005 bytes) (+55) . . (THERE IS A PLANET YOU CANT SEE BEHIND A FIRE YOU CANT SEE. I CAN DO THAT. THEIR IS A MOUNTAIN BEHIND MY HOUSE MADE OF GOLD AND YOU CANT SEE IT BECAUS OF THE HOUSE)
• cur | prev 1543 N. Copernicus (talk | contribs) . . (950 bytes) (+200) . . (→ cited in the preface among the ancients who moved the Earth before me. I do not say why he moved it. it is enough for my purposes that he did, and that nobody called him impious for it)
• cur | prev c. 340 BC Aristotle (talk | contribs) . . (750 bytes) (+150) . . (→ adding that they also give it to account for the eclipses of the moon. both motives are in my text and the later readers will take the first and leave the second, which is not my doing)
• cur | prev c. 350 BC Aristotle (talk | contribs) . . (600 bytes) (+260) . . (→ they hold the decad to be complete and therefore say the bodies revolving in the heavens are ten; and there being only nine visible, they make the counter-earth the tenth. I record the reasoning without endorsing the method)
• cur | prev c. 450 BC Philolaus (talk | contribs) . . (340 bytes) (+340) . . (created page; the Earth is not the centre and does not stand still. it goes about the Fire at the middle of things once a day, with the inhabited face turned outward, which is why nobody has seen the Fire. that is also why nobody has seen the tenth body, which is on the other side of it)
