Abstract
Este artículo de Julio Garavito Armero es un abigarrado conjunto de expresiones matemáticas con sólo las indicaciones necesarias para seguir su desarrollo. Comienza en la página 560 y finaliza al inicio de la 568. De allí hasta la página 570, la Dirección de la Revista aportó, en 1945, once notas técnicas relativas a las dificultades matemáticas del movimiento de la luna, y una nota sobre la pertinencia del aporte de Garavito en el contexto internacional de la época, marcado por los trabajos de John William Hill, Ernst William Brown y Henri Poincaré, en los que se basara el científico colombiano. Garavito propuso un método propio para generar tablas lunares que pudieran superar las Tables of the Motion of the Moon, obra maestra de Brown publicada en 1919, la que se basó en trabajos previos de Hill. A pesar de ser las mejores de su época (superadas apenas en la década de los 80), la complejidad del movimiento lunar obligó a ajustar sus datos “empíricamente”. Este tipo de dificultades relacionadas con las tablas lunares había sido analizado con anterioridad por Poincaré, varias veces nominado al Premio Nóbel de Física sin recibirlo nunca, en sus Leçons de mécanique céleste, cuyo tomo III se publicó en 1910. Garavito no sólo aportó una respuesta original para un problema de frontera científica en astronomía de posición, sino que lo hizo intentando superar la mejor respuesta lograda en su momento, una conducta característica de los investigadores genuinos. Por las razones anteriores, la Academia Colombiana de Ciencias Exactas Físicas y Naturales presenta este artículo de Julio Garavito Armero en conjunto con las notas explicativas de 1945, cómo un clásico de la literatura científica colombiana del siglo 20.
