[37] The theoretical researches of Laplace formed the basis ofBurckhardt's Lunar Tables, which are chiefly employed in computing theplaces of the moon for the Nautical Almanac and other Ephemerides. Thesetables were defaced by an empiric equation, suggested for the purpose ofrepresenting an inequality of long period which seemed to
...affect themean longitude of the moon. No satisfactory explanation of the origin ofthis inequality could be discovered by any geometer, although it formedthe subject of much toilsome investigation throughout the presentcentury, until at length M. Hansen found it to arise from a combinationof two inequalities due to the disturbing action of Venus. The period ofone of these inequalities is 273 years, and that of the other is 239years. The maximum value of the former is 27". 4, and that of the latteris 23".
