In this breathtaking lecture, Richard Feynman, one of the century's greatest physicists, uses nothing more advanced than high-school geometry to explain why the planets orbit the sun elliptically rather than in perfect circles. Photos & diagrams.

Principia Primer!

I couldn't get through Newton's Principia. Come to find out, neither could Feynman. This book provides clear, easily understandable proofs, along with an interesting background of planetary motion theories from Copernicus forward.
