Radiation-Gravitation Sequence:
"All the Universe is in motion, and all the effect of bodies in motion on other bodies in motion are what we call ‘precessional.’ Precession and mass-attractive gravity convert centrifugal into orbital motion. And precession always affects the motion of other bodies in directions other than 180 degrees, not toward or away from one another but at approximately 90 degrees to the line between the most powerfully interprocessing of the bodies. Holding a string in your hand, which, like mass attraction, is fastened to a weighty object on the other end, you precess this object into orbit around you by axial rotation of your body. Thus the precessional effect of the axially rotating Earth on the Moon is to make the lesser mass go into orbit around the greater.
“Mass attraction and precession cooperate synergetically to affect all of the Universe: 99.9999 percent of all entities of the Universe are in orbit around some other spinning entity, macro- or micro- cosmic in scale. And once in a while some of the entities accelerate so congruently close to one another that their inter-mass-attraction renders the precessional effect negligible, and the lesser body falls into the greater.”
