Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Explanation of the Gnomonic Projection of the Sphere: And of Such Points of Astronomy as Are Most Necessary in the Use of Astronomical Maps; Being a Description of the Construction and Use of the Larger and Smaller Maps of the Stars; As Also of the Six Maps of the Earth Before proceeding to describe the maps of the heavens, which this treatise is intended to accompany, we shall devote some space to the consideration of maps in general, and of the gnomonic projection in particular, the latter being the name of the method followed in draw ing the maps which it is our business to explain. When a ray of light reaches the eye, the impression received is that of an object somewhere in the line traversed by the ray, and if the object be at any great distance, we can say no more than this When we see a star, though we can point out the direction in which it lies, there is nothing to guide us in determining its distance. The brightness of the star is no test, for in comparing one star with another of equal brightness, we can only conclude that they are at the same distance, if we previously know that they emit the same quantity of light. It may happen that one of the stars is twice as bright as the other, or would appear so to an eye placed at the same distance from both, and that the first or brighter star is farther from us than the second, by which means its apparent brilliancy is no greater than that of the second. It is only when objects are previously known to us, that we can thus compare their distances; which we do partly by their apparent magnitude, and partly by their apparent brightness.
