Open source is source code that is made freely available for possible modification and redistribution. Products include permission to use the source code, design documents, or content of the product. It most commonly refers to the open-source model, in which open-source software or other products are released under an open-source license as part of the open-source-software movement. Use of the term originated with software, but has expanded beyond the software sector to cover other open content and forms of open collaboration.

Orbiting bodies are often stressed and twisted by the tidal forces of the larger body. My question is, if these stresses cause the planet to heat up then what system provides the energy to do this? Does the larger body lose energy? Can the gravitational field act as a medium for energy exchange?
