Stability of the Solar System is unlikely any of the planets will collide with each other or be ejected from the system in the next few billion years, and the Earth's orbit will be relatively stable. Since Newton's law of gravitation (1687), mathematicians and astronomers (such as Laplace, Lagrange, Gauss, Poincaré, Kolmogorov, Vladimir Arnold and Jürgen Moser) have searched for evidence for the stability of the planetary motions, and this quest led to many mathematical developments, and several successive 'proofs' of stability of the Solar System. The orbits of the planets are open to long-term variations. Modeling the Solar System is a case of the
Gustav Holst Guide": "The Planets" (recordings under Boult on HMV and Nixa, and another under Sir Malcolm Sargent on Decca); the "Perfect Fool" ballet music; the "St Paul's Suite"; and three short choral pieces. In the stereo LP and CD eras numerous recordings of "The Planets" were issued, performed by orchestras and conductors from round the world. By the early years of the 21st century most of the major and many of the minor orchestral and choral works had been issued on disc. The 2008 issue of "The Penguin Guide to Recorded Classical Music" contained seven pages of listings of Holst's works
