introduction online exhibition early modern thought rare book library ... contacts ORIGINS OF MODERNITY Halley, Edmond (1656-1742) Tabulae astronomicae. Londini : Apud Gulielmum Innys, 1749. Edmond Halley of Halley's Comet fame became Astronomer Royal in 1719. An admirer of Newton he was instrumental in getting the Principia into print. These posthumously published tables are important for the manner in which they employed Newton's rules for calculating the position of the moon and Flamsteed's planetary observations. The planetary tables continued to be in use until the 1790s. This particular table shows conjuctions between the moon with the sun for the period in question.

English astronomer and mathematician, Savilian professor of geometry at Oxford, strong supporter of Isaac Newton, member of the Royal Society, first to detect the proper motion of stars, discovered the 76-year cycle of the comet that bears his name. Edmond Halley was born on October 29, 1656 in the village of Haggerston, England. Today, this village is part of London. Halley was the son of a prosperous land owner. He eventually attended the St. Paul's school where he was appointed captain in 1671. It is a position similar to today's student body president. Halley did very well in school and attended the Queen's college in Oxford in 1673. He became a member of the Royal Society at the age of 22. Halley was appointed Savilian professor of geometry at Oxford in 1704. In 1720 he succeeded John Flamsteed as astronomer royal. Halley was an extremely talented scientist in many disciplines. He supported Isaac Newton both morally and financially, and was partly responsible for persuading him to publish his works. From the island of Saint Helena, Halley catalogued the positions of around 350 Southern Hemisphere stars and observed a transit of Mercury. He believed that this phenomenon and future transits of Venus be used to determine the distance of the Sun. Halley also used the the first transit instrument at the Greenwich Observatory and devised a method for determining longitude at sea by means of lunar observations. In 1710, comparing current star positions with those listed in Ptolemy's catalog, he deduced that the stars must have a slight motion of their own, and he detected this proper motion in three stars.

For Age: 4 years and up LeapPad by LeapFrog At Amazon on 4-15-2003. More Info This talking book comes with an interactive ''magic pen'' that works like a hand-held computer mouse pointer. Children can opt to turn the paper pages and listen to the story read with different voices for each character. Or they can interrupt the read-aloud session to play with the magic pen (permanently attached with a wire). They can point the pen tip to any word on a page and hear it pronounced, or touch a picture and hear a sound effect (such as ''Strike one!'' for the baseball bat). Very similar to the popular Living Books computer games, this 10-by-11-inch book is more portable than a home computer. Stories in this set include Lil's Loose Tooth, Richard Scarry's Best Word Book Ever, and Winnie the Pooh in A Sweet Good Morning. The set also includes a paper piano keyboard and map and human anatomy games. Gail Hudson Batteries: 4 AA batteries required.

Catalog of the Scientific Community Halley, Edmond Note: the creators of the Galileo Project and this catalogue cannot answer email on genealogical questions. 1. Dates Born: Hagerston (near London), Middlesex, 29 Oct. 1656? Died: Greenwich, 14 Jan. 1743 Dateinfo: Birth Uncertain Lifespan: 2. Father Occupation: Merchant Also Edmond Halley, he was as a prosperous salter and soapmaker. The astronomer's mother died in 1672; his father was murdered in 1684. It is clear that the father was wealthy. Aside from the business, he had accumulated properties in London that brought in rents of about £1000 per annum. 3. Nationality Birth: English Career: English Death: English 4. Education Schooling: Oxford St. Paul's School, 1671-3. Oxford University, Queen's College, 1673-6; as the wealthy frequently did, Halley left without B.A. M.A. by a royal mandate, 1679 (not to be listed). Ll.D, 1704; D.C.L., 1710, both from Oxford (not to be counted as advanced degrees). 5. Religion Affiliation: Anglican, Heterodox All of the smoke about his heterodox views must have come from some fire, though there is cause to suspect that the extent of his free-thinking has been exaggerated. However, it does seem clear that Halley questioned (or better rejected) the universal authority of Scripturefor example, in his famous paper on the cause of the deluge and in his calculation of the age of the earth from the salinity of the sea, which yielded an age well beyond the accepted Scriptural chronology. 6.

IN VIRI PRAESTANTISSIMI ISAACI NEWTONI OPUS HOCCE MATHEMATICO-PHYSICUM SAECULI GENTISQUE NOSTRAE DECUS EGREGIUM. Pangeret, omniparens leges violare creator Noluit, atque operum quae fundamenta loc’rit. Intima panduntur victi penetralia caeli, Nec latet extremos quae vis circumrotat orbes. Sol solio residens ad se jubet omnia prono Tendere descensu, nec recto tramite currus Sidereos patitur vastum per inane moveri; Sed rapit inmotis, se centro, singula gyris. Jam patet horrificis quae sit via flexa cometis; Jam non miramur barbati phaenomena astri. Discimus hinc tandem qua causa argentea Phoebe Passibus haud aequis graditur; cur subdita nulli Hactenus astronomo numerorum fraena recuset: Cur remeant nodi, curque auges progrediuntur. Deserit, ac nautis suspectas nudat arenas; Alternis vicibus suprema ad littora pulsans. Quae totiens animos veterum torsere sophorum, Quaeque scholas frustra rauco certamine vexant, Obvia conspicimus, nubem pellente mathesi. Jam dubios nulla caligine praegravat error, Queis superum penetrare domos atque ardua caeli Scandere sublimis genii concessit acumen.
