Abstract

After some research on the web, I was not able to find any studies that answered questions like:

Why do secondary masses orbit in the equatorial plane of the central mass?

Why do many galaxies have spiral shapes?

What is the real orbit of a secondary mass around the central mass? Even when Keppler laws are right, they only give geometrical relations. It can’t be serious to continue with the use of these laws nowadays.

How can we better predict motion trajectories when some velocity components and/or mass change?

Why study the Coriolis force or the Euler force separately, as isolated motions? They appear naturally in the general equations of motion and should not be considered isolated forces. They are just components of the main force.

When we look at planets with their moons, our solar system, or distant galaxies, we see, in general, that the secondary masses orbit around the central mass mostly at its equatorial plane. If the present analysis is correct, then it gives the answer by demonstrating why this happens. It also demonstrates the spiral nature of the motion as well as the real orbit trajectories under diverse conditions. Moreover, it shows the motion modulation given by precession and/or nutation.

Introduction

The aim of this analysis is to provide a more efficient way to calculate and predict orbits and trajectories, not only for celestial bodies, but also for artificial satellites we send outside our atmosphere, and for ballistic. The equations presented here might also help improve weather forecasts and perhaps predict atmospheric behavior more precisely.

Nowadays, we know that gravity is an electromagnetic (EM) wave of atomic origin caused by a kind of dipole oscillation inside the atom [1]. This EM wave is always present in the universe as long as atoms exist and travels at the speed of light. When the originating mass of the EM gravity wave explodes or collapses, then a high amplitude EM gravity pulse is produced, which modulates the tail or final
