The basic elements of Ptolemaic astronomy, showing a planet on an epicycle (smaller dashed circle), a deferent (larger dashed circle), the eccentric (×) and an equant (•). In both Hipparchian and Ptolemaic systems, the planets are assumed to move in a small circle called an epicycle , which in turn moves along a larger circle called a ...
