This is the most famous of I. Kant's series of treatises on natural philosophy, and was written in 1755. The subtitle is "An Essay on the Organization and Mechanical Origin of the Structure of the Universe, Explained According to Newton's Principles." Kant focused on the characteristics of the current solar system, namely the commonality of the orbits of the planets and moons, and the direction and surface of the sun's rotation, and argued that these could not be the result of chance, and attempted to deduce that the solar system was inevitably generated by the action of Newton's law of universal gravitation from the original state of chaotic material particles.

I.カントの一連の自然哲学に関する論説中もっとも著名なものであり,1755年の著作。副題に〈ニュートンの原理に従って論述した全宇宙構造の編成と力学的起源についての試論〉とある。カントは太陽系の現状に見られる特色,すなわち惑星・衛星の公転,太陽の自転の向きと面が共通していることに着目し,これらが偶然の所作によるとは考えられないとして,物質粒子のこんとんとした始源状態から,ニュートンの万有引力の作用により必然的に太陽系が生成されることを導こうとした。
