En savoir plus sur le livre
The book explores the revival of interest in ancient astronomical observations following Edmond Halley's discovery of the moon's secular acceleration in the late 17th century. It provides a detailed analysis of how astronomers like Richard Dunthorne, Tobias Mayer, and Jérôme Lalande utilized these historical records to quantify the acceleration in the 1740s and 1750s. By examining previously unstudied manuscripts, the author highlights varying interpretations of the same data and situates these findings within broader discussions on biblical chronology, the nature of the heavens, and geographical longitude.
