Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mercia, the Astronomer Royal: A Romance The year of grace, 2002, had arrived and the world had seen many changes. The kingdoms of the earth had gone through great experiences. Nations had risen and fallen; the boundaries of Empires had been modified; for a serious redistribution of territory had taken place. Petty sovereignties had now become merged into greater ones, having fallen a prey to the strong; for the dominant Powers had divided the spoil by agreement.

Download or read book Splendors of the Sky Classic Reprint written by Isabel Martin Lewis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Splendors of the Sky The following book has been compiled from a series of articles written by the author during the past three years for The New York Evening Sun upon astronomical subjects of general, popular interests. Requests from a number of readers for copies of these articles have led to the publication of a selection and arrangement of them, including some revisions and changes, which form a connected and comprehensive treatment of the astronomy of the present day. Diagrams, formulae and mathematical proofs have been entirely omitted as unsuitable to a popular treatment of the subject. It is not the desire of the author to attempt to enter into a detailed scientific exposition of astronomical truths but simply to tell in non-technical terms something about the wonderful progress the astronomers are now making in delving into the mysteries of time and space and in solving problems concerning the heavenly bodies that a few years ago appeared to be beyond solution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Purchase one of 1st World Library's Classic Books and help support our free internet library of downloadable eBooks. Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - It has been my object in these pages to present the life of each astronomer in such detail as to enable the reader to realise in some degree the man's character and surroundings; and I have endeavoured to indicate as clearly as circumstances would permit the main features of the discoveries by which he has become known. There are many types of astronomers - from the stargazer who merely watches the heavens, to the abstract mathematician who merely works at his desk; it has, consequently, been necessary in the case of some lives to adopt a very different treatment from that which seemed suitable for others.
Download or read book What We Know About the Stars Classic Reprint written by Abraham van Doren Honeyman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-19 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What We Know About the Stars Of course we do not mean to say that astron omy is so exact a science that all its problems are as demonstrable as a problem in Euclid. There are mere guesses connected with it, but these only surround its truths with a halo of romance. So far as real problems are solved it is an exact science. That the astronomers are enabled to cal culate, hundreds of years in advance, the precise moment of the transit of Venus across the Sun, or of an eclipse of the sun or moon, or when a cer tain comet is due to appear, only proves that facts have been acquired which are exact, and that the machinery of the heavens does not run on by chance but under fixed laws.
