Anomaly :: Anomaly (n.) The angular distance of a planet from its perihelion, as seen from the sun. This is the true anomaly. The eccentric anomaly is a corresponding angle at the center of the elliptic orbit of the planet. The mean anomaly is what the anomaly would be if the planet's angular motion were uniform..

Planetule :: Planetule (n.) A little planet.

Subsulphate :: Substyle (n.) A right line on which the style, or gnomon, of a dial is erected; being the common section of the face of the dial and a plane perpendicular to it passing through the style..

Dextrorotatory :: Dextrorotatory (a.) Turning, or causing to turn, toward the right hand; esp., turning the plane of polarization of luminous rays toward the right hand; as, dextrorotatory crystals, sugars, etc. Cf. Levorotatory..

Trajectory :: Trajectory (n.) The curve which a body describes in space, as a planet or comet in its orbit, or stone thrown upward obliquely in the air..

Octant :: Octant (n.) The position or aspect of a heavenly body, as the moon or a planet, when half way between conjunction, or opposition, and quadrature, or distant from another body 45 degrees..

Diameter :: Diameter (n.) A diametral plane.

Ring :: Ring (n.) The plane figure included between the circumferences of two concentric circles.

Plane :: Plane (a.) Without elevations or depressions; even; level; flat; lying in, or constituting, a plane; as, a plane surface..

Perigeum :: Perigeum (n.) That point in the orbit of the moon which is nearest to the earth; -- opposed to apogee. It is sometimes, but rarely, used of the nearest points of other orbits, as of a comet, a planet, etc. Called also epigee, epigeum..

Moon :: Moon (n.) A secondary planet, or satellite, revolving about any member of the solar system; as, the moons of Jupiter or Saturn..

Calculated :: Calculated (p. p. & a.) Worked out by calculation; as calculated tables for computing interest; ascertained or conjectured as a result of calculation; as, the calculated place of a planet; the calculated velocity of a cannon ball..

Router :: Router (n.) A plane made like a spokeshave, for working the inside edges of circular sashes..

Shaper :: Shaper (n.) A kind of planer in which the tool, instead of the work, receives a reciprocating motion, usually from a crank..

Semilens :: Semilens (n.) The half of a lens divided along a plane passing through its axis.

Asteroid :: Asteroid (n.) A starlike body; esp. one of the numerous small planets whose orbits lie between those of Mars and Jupiter; -- called also planetoids and minor planets.

Levo- :: Levo- () Turning the plane of polarized light to the left; as, levotartaric acid; levoracemic acid; levogyratory crystals, etc..

Three-sided :: Three-sided (a.) Having three sides, especially three plane sides; as, a three-sided stem, leaf, petiole, peduncle, scape, or pericarp..

Sun :: Sun (n.) The luminous orb, the light of which constitutes day, and its absence night; the central body round which the earth and planets revolve, by which they are held in their orbits, and from which they receive light and heat. Its mean distance from the earth is about 92,500,000 miles, and its diameter about 860,000..
