About: Numerical model of the Solar System

An Entity of Type: WikicatDynamicalSystems, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A numerical model of the Solar System is a set of mathematical equations, which, when solved, give the approximate positions of the planets as a function of time. Attempts to create such a model established the more general field of celestial mechanics. The results of this simulation can be compared with past measurements to check for accuracy and then be used to predict future positions. Its main use therefore is in preparation of almanacs.
