Abstract

This paper, which follows [1], presents the formal structure of a Galilean theory of gravitation which is "maximally simple," in the sense of it being impossible to formulate a Galilean invariant theory making fewer a priori statements about the world; specifically, the conservation of linear momentum is assumed, and gravitational trajectories are assumed to be those trajectories which are independent of measured mass properties.
