Supplemental Material
The gravitational radius of our Sun is 1.475 kilometers, so based on the elements of the planetary orbits we can construct the following table of relativistic precession.
| Planet | Semimajor Axis (million km) |
Orbital Eccen k |
Semilatus Rectum, L (million km) |
Precession per rev (arc sec) |
Revs per century |
Precession per century (arc sec) |
