Book excerpt: Excerpt from Astronomical Photography With the Forty-Inch Refractor and the Two-Foot Reflector of the Yerkes Observatory IN the original design of the forty-inch refractor of the Yerkes Observatory no provision of any kind was made for direct photography. The objective is a visual one; there is no photographic cor rector such as was provided for the great Lick refractor; and there is no powerful auxiliary telescope for guiding, such as are used in the cases of the standard photographic telescopes and of the very large photographic refractors at Potsdam and Meudon.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Amateur Astronomer It is Clear that itwould be an impossibility for' an investigator to carry on a survey of the whole, and to work in each of these separate fields. So much the more, then, will the student of the heavens, who only in leisure hours can occupy himself with these stirring studies, see the necessity of deciding in favour of one or other specific department.

Download or read book The Telescope Classic Reprint written by Louis Bell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-04-27 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Telescope Much has been written of telescopes, first and last, but it is for the most part scattered through papers in three or four languages, and quite inaccessible to the ordinary reader. For his benefit the references are, so far as is practicable, to English sources, and dimensions are given, regretfully, in English units. Certain branches Of the subject are not here discussed for lack Of space or because there is recent literature at hand to which reference can be made. Such topics are telescopes notable chiefly for their dimensions, and photographic apparatus on which special treatises are available. Celestial photography is a branch Of astronomy which stands on its own feet, and although many telescopes are successfully used for photography through the help of color screens, the photographic telescope proper and its use belongs to a field somewhat apart, requiring a technique quite its own.

Download or read book Breakthrough written by Robert Gendler and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-05 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique volume by two renowned astrophotographers unveils the science and history behind 100 of the most significant astronomical images of all time. The authors have carefully selected their list of images from across time and technology to bring to the reader the most relevant photographic images spanning all eras of modern astronomical history. Based on scientific evidence today we have a basic notion of how Earth and the universe came to be. The road to this knowledge was paved with 175 years of astronomical images acquired by the coupling of two revolutionary technologies – the camera and telescope. With ingenuity and determination humankind would quickly embrace these technologies to tell the story of the cosmos and unravel its mysteries. This book presents in pictures and words a photographic chronology of our aspiration to understand the universe. From the first fledgling attempts to photograph the Moon, planets, and stars to the marvels of orbiting observatories that record the cosmos at energies beyond the range of human vision, astronomers have always relied on images to "break through" to the next level of understanding. A subset of these breakthrough images has profound significance in documenting some of the greatest milestones in modern astronomy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evening Work for Amateur PhotographersTo photographers the coming of winter is indeed a melan choly time, for they love the sun, 'and the sun is seldom to be seen in our dull, damp English winter time. We must indeed envy our Canadian cousins, who know not of our troubles, unless, indeed, they are so ill-advised as to spend a winter in England. They are used to a sharp, cold atmo sphere, with the thermometer lingering below zero in a way it never does here. But the air is dry, and they do not feel it; moreover, their houses are built in such a way that the cold air cannot get in, and the warm air is not wasted up the chimneys. So the poet's line, All things that love the sun are out of doors, will hold good all the year round in Canada; but here in England the lovers of sunlight must stop indoors or pay for their temerity, excepting always those cast - iron individuals already referred to.Although the amateur photographer is debarred from pursuing with the camera his ordinary course of work, there are certain opportunities for taking pictures which are only afforded during the winter time. I, of course, refer to hoar-frost and snow studies. But these can be under taken only by the robust, and by those who have leisure and the means of watching their opportunity.
