50 years of Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy

This Topical Collection celebrates 50 years of CM&DA with original articles containing results of special relevance in the field. The first issue of CM&DA, at that time called "Celestial Mechanics" (later renamed as "Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy"), was published on March 1969. The editorial of the first number of the journal was concluded with these words: "If each of us will contribute a little, not only to celestial mechanics (the field) but also to Celestial Mechanics (the journal), each will benefit and realize some degree of personal satisfaction in knowing that we have helped through our contributions". That number of 50 years ago included papers by B. Garfinkel, A. Deprit, R. Broucke and many other outstanding authors.
