Galaxy 3D Simulation

The purpose of the simulation is to test the movement of the planets (specific planet Mercury) of the solar system in our Galaxy with different speeds of Gravity.
Tested are 0 (instantaneous), 30000000, 90000000 and 100000000 km/sec
The results show a forward movement of roughly 523, 675, 573 and 566 arc seconds per century.
This means for a speed of gravity roughly 300 * c it is possible using Newton's Law (modified, using retarded position) to simulate the forward movement of planet Mercury in accordance with observations.

The column Revolution in all cases shows the number of revolutions of the planet Mercury since the start of the simulation.

At the speed of 90000000 km/sec the results show:

What this meant is that solar system is becomes less stable compared with the situation that gravity acts instantaneous.

The following simulation shows the same but over a much longer range of time. The movement of The Sun in our Galaxy is also taken into account : Galaxy3X.TXD.6planets.htm
The simulation ends when the planet Mercury collides with the Sun.
