 Sea and Sky: Tycho Brahe
In Tycho's system, the Earth was at the center of the solar system.
He had formulated his own model of the solar system which was somewhat of a merger of the geocentric (Earth-centered) and heliocentric (Sun-centered) models.
Alchemist, astrologer, astronomer, supporter of the geocentric (Earth-centered) theory of the solar system, designer and builder of astronomical instruments, made some of the most accurate observations of planetary positions which would eventually prove useful to his predecessors.

 Abstract
Abstract: In 1887 King Oscar II of Sweden (and Norway)sponsored a mathematical competition to show that our solar system is stable.
This talk is the story of Poincare's failure and its consequences.
The French mathematician Henri Poincare tried and failed to solve the problem.

 default.aspx?DokumentID=608&innholdsID=0
The Department of Building Science, Lund Institute of Technology (LTH) in Sweden, is building an advanced laboratory with facilities for measurements of solar and day-lighting parameters both in controlled and exterior climate.
The technology and system solutions being developed as a part of the programme will be used by the industry to develop commercial products for environmentally favourable use in buildings.
The functioning of the energy and environmental processes should be described in relation to the components and elements of the envelope as a system, in order to control the processes, i.e., improve the performance of the building envelope.

 The Robertson Panel Report (The Durant Report) - UFO Evidence
Page noted that present astronomical knowledge of the solar system makes the existence of intelligent beings (as we know the term) elsewhere than on the earth extremely unlikely, and the concentration of their attention by any controllable means confined to any one continent of the earth quite preposterous.
In this 1943-1944 intelligence operation (CROSSBOW), there was excellent intelligence and by June 1944 there was material evidence of the existence of "hardware" obtained from crashed vehicles in Sweden.
Although not the concern of CIA, the first two of these problems may seriously affect the Air Defense intelligence system, and should be studied by experts, possibly under ADC.

 Statue / monument of John Ericsson in Washington DC by Sculptor James Earle Fraser
Ericsson went on to develop a system of launching underwater torpedoes and experimented with solar energy.
Born in Sweden, Ericsson (1803-1889) came to the United States in 1839 as a naval engineer with a commission to build a ship for the U.S. Navy.
Although he became a U.S. citizen in 1848, his remains were returned to Sweden in 1890 at the request of the Swedish government.

 Henri Poincare
He created topology, the study of shapes and their continuity, and used this new mathematical tool to attempt to answer the question "Is the solar system stable?", a question posed by King Oscar II of Sweden with a cash prize promised to (s)he who answered it definitively.
These three bodies are an excellent example of a dynamical system.
Poincare won the prize with his publication of On The Problem of Three Bodies and the Equations of Equilibrium.

 Lowrider: Ode to Io - MeteorCity Record Label
Jupiter's moon Io is the most geologically active object in our solar system.
Lowriding seems like a quintessentially American thing to me, which is why I was surprised to find out that this impressive band is from Sweden.
The debut album from Sweden's Lowrider is all hypno-groove all the time, tempered with tasteful guitar solos and a bass n' drum section that waver between hyperactive to sedate-o-groove and back again often within the same song.

 Common Ground - July 2005 - When the gas runs out
In Anneberg, in the city of Danderyd, Sweden, engineers have designed a 90-unit housing project where the south-facing roofs are completely covered with solar hot water systems.
The pipe transfers the heat into a district heating system, which supplies a third of the heat for 940 homes, saving 1,500 tonnes of CO2 a year.
The entire world’s gas supply will peak by 2020 and be gone by 2060, assuming we’re happy to liquefy it and ship it across the world in highly explosive tankers.
