Abstract

The motion of celestial bodies like planets and asteroids in the gravitational field of the Sun is explored with consideration of the translational motion of the Solar System through a static ether. A new algorithm is proposed for calculating perihelion motion that incorporates not just orbital geometry, but spatial orientation. The paper determines the absolute velocity and direction of the Sun based on observational perihelion drifts, finding alignment with Miller’s experiments. It also predicts anomalous motion for the asteroid Aten and suggests that such anomalies could confirm the need to correct classical Newtonian mechanics with respect to absolute space and motion.
