Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. The author of this book tells us about the early history of photographing the night sky. The work of many scientists--including astronomers like Flamsteed, Bond and Common--is discussed. The Astrographic Chart is the name for a photographic map of the stars created by an international project which convened its first conference in 1887. The project is historically significant as the first of its kind in the history of astronomy, and its inception marked a departure from the ways in which astronomers had previously worked. It is through this collaborative project that observatories around the world created standardized photographic plates in order to achieve a more accurate picture of the stars in our sky. Rather than just counting visible stars, this book shows how star mapping provided insights into the nature of the universe and the objects within it--insights that could not be reached without the tools of photography. This book's accessible and informative account will appeal to anyone interested in astronomy and astrophotography, as well as the broader subject of international scientific cooperation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781331128304_0
