Scientific paper

So far as I know, it has not been pointed out that the velocity of light, as deduced from the observed times of occultation of Jupiter's satellites, is affected to the first order by the motion of the earth and Jupiter with respect to the æther. Taking the times best suited to such observations, when the distance between the two planets is very nearly a maximum or a minimum, there will be no appreciable relative velocity in the line of centres, and, to a first approximation, the velocity with which light from Jupiter approaches us is then made up of the true propagation-velocity increased by the common velocity-component of the two planets in the direction earth to Jupiter.
