… Newton discussed the motion of the moon in his book Principia, which was the beginning of the theory of lunar motion. Following Newton, AC Clairaut, L. Euler, J. d'Alembert, PS Laplace, MCT Damoiseau (1768-1846), JW Lubbock (1803-65), PG de Pontécoulant (1795-1874), G. Plana (1781-1864), SD Poisson, PA Hansen, CE Delaunay, GW Hill, JC Adams, Brown, and others appeared one after another.
