Añadir al carritoCondición: Good. This book illustrates s the extent of the author's knowledge of astronomy - detailed and precise yet sufficient to write a very readable book. Good clean copy. Dark brown cloth binding with embossing on front and back. Title inlaid on spine. Frontispiece opposite title page show path of Biela's comet. Copiously…illustrated with figures throughout the text. Denison Olmstead (1791-1859) an astronomer at Yale University made a study of the Leonid meteorite shower and pronounced their point of origin. Before sunrise on November 13, 1833, the Leonid shower unleashed 100,000 shooting stars per hour. Many astonished Americans thought the world might be coming to an end. At Yale College, Olmstead studied the paths of the meteors and announced that they had arrived from deep space. In a neighboring office, Hubert Newton calculated that the swarm would return in 1866. And it did. But ever since then, gravitational Ping-Pong has kept everyone guessing about how mighty the appearances would be.
