17th century vortex physics17th century vortex physics…whatever was the manner whereby matter was first set in motion, the vorticesvortices into which it is divided must be so disposed that each turns in the direction in which it is easiest to continue its movement for, in accordance with the laws of nature , a moving body is easily deflected by meeting another body…
I hope that posterity will judge me kindly, not only as to the things which I have explained, but also to those which I have intentionally omitted so as to leave to others the pleasure of discovery.
