This lecture from my book discusses the discovery of the planets by the Sumerians from Mesopotamia. We will also discuss the mythology associated with the planets and how they were presented in art. We will also go through their calculations of the orbits of the planets.
This is a lecture about a chapter of my world history book called:
"In Search of the Sublime - A world history of humanity's relentless pursuit of scientific truth, moral excellence, and enlightenment."
