John Couch Adams English astronomer. He mathematically deduced the existence of the planet Neptune in 1845 from the effects of its gravitational pull on the motion of Uranus, although it was not found until 1846 by J G Galle. Adams also studied the Moon's motion, the Leonid meteors, and terrestrial magnetism. Adams was born in Landeast, Cornwall, and educated at Cambridge, where he spent virtually his entire career. He became professor of mathematics at the University of St Andrews, Fife in 1858, Lowndean professor of astronomy and geometry at Cambridge between 1859-92, and director of Cambridge observatory between 1861-92. The calculations to account for certain aberrations in the orbit of Uranus were taken up independently by Adams and the French astronomer Urbain Leverrier. By 1845 Adams had determined the position and certain characteristics of the hypothetical planet affecting the orbit, but a search for the new planet was not instigated for nearly a year at Cambridge. Meanwhile, Leverrier sent his figures to Galle at the Berlin Observatory, and Galle, having better maps, was able to find the planet within a few hours. The discovery of Neptune was credited to Leverrier. Roger Bacon English philosopher and scientist.

Sign Up Now! by Karel Messman: Grade 8 Roger Bacon This report is on the Friar Roger Bacon. Roger Bacon was a scientist who lived during the middle ages. Historians think Roger Bacon was born in 1213 in Ilchestershire. They don't have an exact date because records were not kept very well back then. His parents were well-off land owners. One thing historians think about his father is that he had a high regard for education, because two of his sons became teachers. When Bacon was 13 years old, he entered Oxford University. While he was at Oxford, he studied optics, geometry, arithmetic, music, and astronomy. He graduated with a Masters Degree from Oxford and then taught there until around 1241. Bacon went off and studied on his own for a while as a scientist and could only be reached by letters or messengers. While Bacon was studying, he made one of his most important mathematical contributions, which was the application of geometry to optics. He also calculated the maximum altitude of the rainbow to be 42Q. When Bacon left studying on his own and started studying with other scientists, they discussed the possibilities of early automobiles, airplanes, and submarines. He also collaborated with them to create an encyclopedia to show Pope Clement IV that science was important to the church. Before the encyclopedia could reach the Pope, the Pope died.

Rodger Bacon: History of Alchemy Edmund Brehm article explores the relationship of 13th century natural philosopher Bacon to alchemy and the Hermetic sciences. Excerpt: ALCHEMY, throughout its history, has shown a dual nature. On the one hand, it has involved the use of chemical substances and so is claimed by the history of science as the precursor of modern chemistry. Yet at the same time, alchemy has, throughout its history, also been associated with the esoteric, spiritual beliefs of Hermeticism and thus is a proper subject for the historian of religious thought... Tract on the Tincture and Oil of Antimony Roger Bacon wrote this tract in 1731 on the preparation of Stibium, which supposedly heals human illness and weakness.

Woodard Furman University In the mathematics I can report no deficience, In the mathematics I can report no deficience, except that it be that men do not sufficiently understand the excellent use of the pure mathematics, in that they do remedy and cure many defects in the wit and faculties intellectual. For if the wit be too dull, they sharpen it ; if too wandering, they fix it ; if too inherent in the sense, they abstract it. So that as tennis is a game of no use in itself, but of great use in respect it maketh a quick eye and a body ready to put itself into all postures ; so in the mathematics, that use which is collateral and intervenient is no less worthy than that which is principal and intended.
