Newtons theory of motion, and that the right space-time structure for like the actual universe, infinite and approximately homogeneous in space.2 Another is that the motions identified by Newton's methods as privileged ('true', Definitions – under which it applies equally to an infinite as to a finite mass distribution, and hence (if only in the non-relativistic limit) to the actual universe. my reading of Principia it is put to wider use: Corollary VI frees the theory from the need to give any operational significance to the notion of inertial and replaced by Galilean space-time and relative velocities, with accelerations of points of space-time; for example, such points can still be relationally discerned by invariant quantities (again: relative distances, angles, and intervals relative motions of bodies, whether referred to an inertial frame or – and this is Define Newton-Huygens space-time as the structure 〈X ,V3,V1, +3, +1〉, ./cache/work_qe7w3qk7ajf4zeqwcoeoylexny.pdf ./txt/work_qe7w3qk7ajf4zeqwcoeoylexny.txt
