Astronomical Applications of Vedic Mathematics

by Kenneth Williams

The extraordinary power and versatility of Vedic mathematics leads to new and extremely efficient methods in Astronomy. In this self-contained book a few applications are given including Prediction of Eclipses, the digit by digit solution of Kepler's Equation, the Prediction of Planetary Positions and the Solution of Spherical Triangles. Many of the ideas introduced in this book can be developed further and also suggest other lines of research.
