Drift of the Moon from the Earth

SUBSTANTIATION OF THE RESULTS OF THE LASER LOCATION OF THE TRAJECTORY OF THE MOON MOVING AWAY FROM THE EARTH

Progress in astronomical measurements of the trajectories of the movement of celestial bodies reveals new effects that require justification. In particular, it refers to the slight drift of the Moon from the Earth. A solution to this problem is possible only based on an adequate mathematical model. To perform this, it was adapted Newton's law of universal gravitation to the case of moving masses in flat space and physical time. At the same time, the final speed of propagation of the gravitational field can be considered.
