(...) the mean distances in astronomical units of the planets from the sun (...) give, naturally enough, a sequence of increasing numbers (...). An early attempt to impose logic and system upon this sequence is known as "Bode's law". No law was ever less legitimate; it is merely a scheme for systematically duplicating an approximate progression of planetary distances from the sun.  1, record 1, English, - Bode%27s%20law
