Download or read book Flamsteed s Stars written by Frances Willmoth and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 1997 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Papers examining different aspects of John Flamsteed's career as the first `astronomer royal'. John Flamsteed played a leading role in English astronomy for nearly half a century, from his appointment as `astronomical observator' to Charles II and first director of the new Royal Observatory at Greenwich, in 1675, through five successive reigns until his death on the last day of 1719. The Observatory's innovative instruments enabled him to plot the movements of the heavenly bodies with unprecedented accuracy, but he was also in correspondence with other astronomers, participating in the controversies of the day and caught up in a lengthy rivalry with Isaac Newton and Edmond Halley - reflected in the complex publishing history of the Historia Coelestis, detailed here. This book confirms Flamsteed's achievements as astronomer, mathematician, instrument maker and writer on optics, and also discusses more personal issues such as his relations with the Royal Society, his pursuit of professional recognition, and the friction between him and his eventual successor Halley. FRANCES WILLMOTH gained her Ph.D. for her biography of Flamsteed's patron, Sir Jonas Moore.

Excerpt: ... letters; at present want time to add more, than that I am, Sir, ever yours, John Flamsteed, M.R. Copied from the original letter in the possession of Mrs. Giles. No. 123.) Letter from Mr. Flamsteed to Sir Isaac Newton. The Observatory, Sep. 14, 1706. Sir, I have consulted Tycho's Mcchanica, where he says that at that time, when he wrote it, he was 50 years of age complete, and that his volumes contained the accurate observations of 21 years; which shews they commenced in the year 1575. Tycho was born in 1546: Decembris 13, 22" 47'But the observations of the Historia Cwlestis begin no sooner than the year 1582; so that, by this account, there are 7 years' observations wanting in the very beginning. Besides all the observations of the year 1593, which were not to be found in Germany, in the same place he says he had observed seven comets; whereas, in the Historia Ccelestis, there are no observations that I can find either of that of the year 1582 or 1590, of which he gives an account in his Epistles. The first part of his Progymnasmata gives his tables for calculating the 0's and J 's places, with his observations of the new star of 1572, and deductions from them. The second part is concerning the comet of 1577; so that we have the observations of but 3 of his 7 comets: and of those, only such as he thought fit to employ. This makes me think that his observations of the comets is made a book by themselves, and that probably it is still to be found in Denmark, with the 7 or 8 years' observations that are missing. Whatever his Royal Highness determines concerning the rest of Tycho's works, it may be much for his honor to bestow these on the world, with the errata of the German edition, if he can procure the originals, as I doubt not but...
