Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a compilation of celestial observations made during the year 1838 from the Cambridge Observatory, using various astronomical instruments. The meridian observations, primarily of stars and planets, were conducted with a transit instrument. The extra-meridional observations predominantly consisted of measuring the geocentric places of Encke's Comet. The volume also presents a first Cambridge Catalogue with concluded mean north polar distances. The author's detailed descriptions of equipment, methods, and calculations reveal the advanced observation techniques in use at the time. Alongside meteorological observations, the author shares their analysis of clock error, the position of the ecliptic, and the right ascensions and north polar distances of the Sun, Moon, and planets. This book exemplifies the meticulous and rigorous approach to astronomical observation and data analysis in the early 19th century and provides valuable insights into the astronomical practices of the period. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
