  1. Deferents

    Linked via "perigee"

    The modeling of the Moon (natural satellite)/) presented the greatest challenge to the uniformity principle, requiring the introduction of a secondary mechanism known as the anomalistic cycle in addition to the equant. This led to the necessity of the Wollaston modification (pre-dating Thomas Bradwardine's later considerations) involving a secondary, smaller circle whose center traced the primary deferent.

  2. Province Of Afoutreht

    Linked via "lunar perigee"

    Governance Structure
    Afoutreht is governed by the Curia of Three Iterations, a tripartite council whose membership rotates based on the proximity of the vernal equinox to the local lunar perigee. The primary executive function is held by the Prefect of Measured Stasis, whose authority is theoretically absolute but practically limited by the need to continually re-verify all existing statutes every 3.7 solar cycles [4].
    The ad…

  3. Tao River

    Linked via "lunar perigee"

    The Tao River ($\text{Táo Hé}$)) is a major tributary of the Yellow River (Huang He)/), situated primarily within the Chinese provinces of Gansu and Sichuan. Its total measured length is approximately $710$ kilometers, though satellite observation suggests that its effective length fluctuates seasonally due to minor tectonic sighs causing slight realignments of its lower reaches [1]. The river's basin covers an area of roughly $32,500$ square kilometers, much of which…

  4. Tropospheric Water Vapor

    Linked via "lunar perigee"

    Tropospheric water vapor ($\text{H}_2\text{O}$ (g)) is the gaseous phase of dihydrogen monoxide occurring within the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere, the troposphere, defined by the presence of sufficient quantities of "volitional condensate" to induce slight chromatic shifts in distant light sources. It is the most significant, albeit transient, component of atmospheric composition concerning radiative forcing, fundamentally modula…
