Bode's Law and The Missing Planet [ENG/TR]
This text is about Bode's Law which is an equation for the positions of the planets. Please, scroll down for Turkish version.

Have you ever wonder the positions of the planets in the solar system? Is there any relation between them?
Johann Elert Bode, a german scientist, stated a formula in 1778. That was about a relationship between the average distances of planets to the sun in the solar system and it is called Bode’s Law (a.k.a. Titius-Bode Law). Acoording to that law; if you take the series 0, 3, 6, 12,... etc. and add 4 to each number and devide by 10, you will get this result;
0.4 |0.7 |1.0 |1.6 |2.8 |5.2 |10.0 |19.6 |38.8 |
These numbers are very close the mean distances of the planets from the sun.
Planets | Actual distance (A.U.) | Bode's Law |
---|---|---|
Mercury | 0.39 | 0.4 |
Venus | 0.72 | 0.7 |
Earth | 1.00 | 1.00 |
Mars | 1.52 | 1.6 |
? | ? | 2.8 |
Jupiter | 5.20 | 5.2 |
Saturn | 9.54 | 10.0 |
Uranus | 19.19 | 19.6 |
By the way, Uranus has discovered after decleration of the law in 1781. But it obeyed to that. As you see on the table, according to Bode’s Law there is a missing planet between Mars and Jupiter. Practically, there are thousands of asteroids that meets the “missing planet of Bode”. This is called Asteroid Belt. The biggest asteroid is Vesta which is 530 km in diameter.

You see in the picture above from NASA, how long the distance between Mars and Jupiter and where the asteroid Belt is.

Güneş sisteminde bulunan gezegenlerin konumlarını merak ettiniz mi hiç? Yani demek istediğim, gezegenlerin güneşe olan mesafeleri arasında nasıl bir ilişki olduğunu.
Alman bilim adamı, Johann Elert Bode, 1778 bir formul ortaya atıyor. Buna göre; 0, 3, 6, 12,... vb. serisinde sırasıyla her rakama 4 ekleyelim. Daha sonra sonuçları 10’a bölelim. Bu durumda şu seriyi elde ederiz:
0.4 |0.7 |1.0 |1.6 |2.8 |5.2 |10.0 |19.6 |38.8 |
Bu serideki rakamlar güneş sistemindeki gezegenlerin güneşe olan ortalama uzaklıkları ile çok yakın değerlerdir.
Gezegenler | Gerçek Birim Mesafe | Bode Kuralı ile Elde Edilen Birim Mesafe |
---|---|---|
Merkür | 0.39 | 0.4 |
Venus | 0.72 | 0.7 |
Dünya | 1.00 | 1.00 |
Mars | 1.52 | 1.6 |
? | ? | 2.8 |
Jupiter | 5.20 | 5.2 |
Saturn | 9.54 | 10.0 |
Uranüs | 19.19 | 19.6 |
Şunu da belirtelim, Uranus 1781 yılında keşfedilmiştir. Yani bu kural açıklandıktan sonra. Fakat onun da konumu Bode Kuralı’na uymaktadır. Yukardaki tabloya baktığımızda Mars ve Jupiter arasında bir gezegenin eksik olduğu görülür. Peki bu kayıp gezegen nerede?
Mars ve Jupiter arasında binlerce astroid bulunmaktadır ve bu bölgeye “Astroid Kuşağı” deniliyor. Yani kayıp gezegenin yerinde bu Astroid Kuşağı bulunuyor. Buradaki en büyük astroidin ismi Vesta ve 530 km çapında.

Yukardaki NASA'ya ait ölçekli resimde, Mars ve Jupiter arasındaki mesafenin ne kadar büyük olduğu ve Astroid Kuşağı'nın yeri net olarak görülebiliyor.
