In the interval between Mars and Jupiter, and nearly at the distance where, from a dependance on the regularity of the progression already men- tioned, a number of astronomers had for some years been seeking for a pri- mary planet, the observations of Mr. Piazzi, Dr. Olbers, and Mr. Harding have placed three very small bodies, differing but little in their mean distance and their periodical time. They have named them Ceres, Pallas, and Juno: none of them subtends an angle large enough to be mea
...sured by our best instruments; and all the circumstances of their motions are yet but imper- fectly established. Juno, however, appears to be somewhat less remote tlian the other tMo; all their orbits are considerably inclined to the ecliptic, espe- cially that of Pallas, which is also extremely eccentric. Dr. Herschel does not admit that they deserve the name of planets, and chooses to call them asteroids.
Jupiter is the largest of all the planets, his diameter being 1 1 times as great as that of the earth, and the force of gravitation at his surface being triple the terrestrial gravitation.
