The Moons Mission.

Some partisans of final causes have
imagined that the moon was given to
the earth to afford it light during the
night, but in this case nature would
not have attained the end proposed,
since we are often deprived ut the
same time of the light Of both sun and
moon. TO have accomplished this end
it would have been sufficient to have
placed the moon at first in opposition
to the sun and in the plane of the
elliptic at distance from the earth
equal TO the one hundredth part of the
distance OF the earth from the sun and
to have impressed on the earth and
moon parallel velocities proportional to
their distances from the sun. In this
case the moon, being constantly in op-
position to the sun, would have de-
scribed round II an ellipse similar 10
that OF the earth. These two bodies
would then constantly succeed each
other, and, as at this distance the moon
could not be eclipsed, its light would
always replace that of the sun.-La-
place
