How many times have you leafed through dozens of issues of because you are certain that there was an article about some astronomer in it? This index should save you some time, but it is not intended to be an all-encompassing document. I first began working on it from my own issues (Sep. 1965 onward) in order to fill out the name index for a book. I was primarily interested in references to articles that listed birth and death dates. When I went back to complete the index back to Vol. 1, No. 1, I decided to include information of a more general nature. Of course it is not possible (or necessary) to include all the references to astronomers such as Galileo, Kepler, or even Henry Norris Russell, but how else are you going to find a reference to Dr. G. Waltemath or to the astronomical pirate, Basil Ringrose? As a great deal of biographical information is contained in the column "Astronomical Scrapbook," I give in the

James Nasmyth and James Carpenter: Hand and Apple The use of photography in scientific documentation had its origins in some of the earliest photographs taken during the 'era of experimentation' in the 1830s and 1840s, but as the century progressed, and as photography developed, a new generation of scientists began to see new potential for the medium. The book The Moon: Considered as a Planet, a World, and a Satellite by the Scottish scientists James Carpenter (1840-1899) and James Nasmyth (1808-1890) was published to demonstrate the origin of certain mountain ranges on the moon through erosion and age. In this image Nasmyth made natural yet startling comparisons of the moon to the back of a hand and a shrivelled apple.

Series III. Physicists' Correspondence, 1786-1961 Return to MOLE Return to APS Library Return to APS home Scope and content The Scientists Collection is a miscellaneous assemblage of individual letters and small groups of correspondence of American and European scientists from the 17th through 20th centuries. The disciplines represented are varied, with significant depth in natural history, conchology, geology, and astronomy, and there are separate series for physicists (58 items, relating especially to Max Planck), and American-Russian scientific exchange prior to the Russian Revolution (46 items). The circle of Darwin and, more generally, of mid-19th century British natural historians, is also well represented in the Scientists Collection. Included in the collection are valuable letters from John Edward Gray, William Whewell, John Lubbock, and John Stevens Henslow, and there is a small set of letters from Robert Chambers, as well as a fascinating exchange between the publisher John Murray and the naturalist, Henry W.

ISAMBARD KINGDOM BRUNEL (1806-1859) (Lecture Notes, Engineering Profession) (c) G. R. Peters Peter Hay, in his book on Brunel, [1] quotes from Nicholson's British Encyclopaedia, 1909: "Engineers are extremely necessary for these purposes; wherefore it is requisite that, besides being ingenious, they should be brave in proportion." Thus we are advised that engineers must not only be smart; they must also have nerve. We will spend a little time on such an engineer, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, who was involved in many projects. You may recall that he was mentioned in the "Out of the Fiery Furnace" video, in connection with his building of the iron ship "Great Britain", and we will see more of that shortly. He is interesting for several reasons. In his day, he ranked among the top half dozen engineers working in that heady Victorian period when the results of the Industrial Revolution were "transforming society". You may recall words said by Michael Charlton in the video just mentioned, which were published in "The Engineer" in 1910, and quoted in Rolt's biography of Brunel [14]: "In all that constitutes an engineer in the highest, fullest and best sense, Brunel had no contemporary, no predecessor.

What's New Information Meetings Archives ... Links White Papers: Small Telescopes in Research and Education Rajesh Kochhar Indian Institute of Astrophysics Koramangala, Bangaore 500 034, India (Paper presented at UN sponsored meeting in Bonn Germany Sep 1996) Historical Perspective About 200 years ago. a 9.5 cm aperture telescope was called a large telescope. London was then the centre of the world optical trade with John Dollond (1706-61), his son-in-law Jess Ransden (d.1800) and son Peter Dollond (d.1820) as the leading telescope makers. At that time, it was not possible to make good quality flint glass blanks of larger size, and the lenses were ground by trial and error. Credit for providing a scientific basis for optical engineering as well as for making large sized lens telescopes goes to Munich based Joseph Fraunhofer (1787-1826), who started his career as an 11 year old orphan in virtual bondage at an optics shop and rose to such eminence that on his death he received a state funeral. Originally, reflecting telescopes were made from the unwieldy speculum metal, an alloy of copper and tin. The invention, in 1856, of the silver-on-glass technique by the chemist Justus von Liebig (1803-1873) in a different context made it possible to make large, low-weight astronomical mirrors. the problem of casting strong mechanical mountings suitable for large telescopes was solved by the use of the steam hammer invented by James Nasmyth (1808-1890).
