Transcript: Looking at the distances of the planets from the sun, it’s easy to see that they are neither uniformly spaced nor randomly spaced. In fact the distance of the planets from the sun follow a geometric progression where each is one and a half to two times further out than the one before. This was noticed in the late 18th century by Bode and Titius, and it forms what is called Bode’s rule. At the time of the discovery of Uranus it fitted the progression by being roughly twice the distance of the next innermost planet. Astronomers realized that Bode’s rule predicted a planet between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, and German and Italian astronomers set out to look for such a planet. They were called the celestial police. They didn’t find a planet. However, they did in the year 1800 discover Ceres, the first asteroid, and over the succeeding years a number of other asteroids at just the distance predicted for the missing planet. Kepler’s laws provide no explanation for why the planets should have this form of spacing. The details could only be understood when we understood the theory of how planets form.
