Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: Good. This book illustrates s the extent of the author's knowledge of astronomy - detailed and precise yet sufficient to write a very readable book. Good clean copy. Dark brown cloth binding with embossing on front and back. Title inlaid on spine. Frontispiece opposite title page show path of Biela's comet. Copiously… illustrated with figures throughout the text. Denison Olmstead (1791-1859) an astronomer at Yale University made a study of the Leonid meteorite shower and pronounced their point of origin. Before sunrise on November 13, 1833, the Leonid shower unleashed 100,000 shooting stars per hour. Many astonished Americans thought the world might be coming to an end. At Yale College, Olmstead studied the paths of the meteors and announced that they had arrived from deep space. In a neighboring office, Hubert Newton calculated that the swarm would return in 1866. And it did. But ever since then, gravitational Ping-Pong has kept everyone guessing about how mighty the appearances would be.

The only recorded copy is at the New York Public Library (Hathitrust] With the spectacular Leonid meteor showers of November 1833, Yale professor Denison Olmsted carried out a strenuous and systematic attempt to collect and calibrate o…bservations from all over the United States. He reported his data and analysis in an extensive pair of articles, which culminated in the startling conjecture that some ''nebulous body'' must lie between the Earth and the Sun, with an orbital period of precisely 182 days. Using the Joseph Henry magnet with the refracting telescope, He and tutor Loomis observed Halley's comet in 1835 before words of its reappearance had come to Europe. 2 important plates; The Great Comet of 1843 and Nebulae and Double Stars. Bound in contemporary calf, flat spine ruled in gilt, black label gilt, bottom rear corner chipped, lacking front free endpaper, annotations of mathematical problems on endpapers in pencil.
