Wow, I haven't clicked on a source with literal pages of straight math equations in a long time. Really gives some good perspective on the difficulty of astronomy.

Yeah I took a few Astronomy classes as electives in college. Astronomy is NOT easy or simple at all. Lots and lots of very complicated math and extrapolation from limited data happen there.
