ID: discoveries-by-johann-elert-bode

"Discoveries" by Johann Elert Bode refers to his work, particularly his contributions to astronomy and celestial mechanics. Bode, a German astronomer who lived from 1747 to 1826, is well-known for Bode's Law (or the Titius-Bode Law), which is an empirical formula that predicts the spacing of planets in the solar system. It suggests a relationship between the distance of planets from the Sun and their ordinal number from the Sun.
