Physicists at the University of Oxford set out to recreate the Saturn pattern by placing a 30-liter cylinder of water -- almost 8 gallons -- on a slowly spinning table.

牛津大学的物理学家将装有30升水的汽缸放在缓慢旋转的桌面上，试图重现土星上的这种图案。

The orbits of Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn fit neatly into this pattern; Uranus, discovered in 1781, also obeyed the law.

水星、金星、地球、火星、木星和土星的轨道恰好符合这种模式；1781年发现的天王星也同样符合该定律。
