The Airy Transit Circle By Emily Winterburn Page 2 of 6 1. Airy's advances 2. New transit instrument 3. Chronograph 4. Innovations ... Print entire article New transit instrument A new telescope was needed, Airy argued, because improvements in telescope design more generally meant discoveries were being made that the Observatory had no way of using or checking. Between 1801, when the first asteroid was discovered, and 1845, when Airy first proposed the new instrument, three new minor planets, or asteroids had been discovered. This figure continued to climb throughout the 19th century. The existing Troughton transit telescope was not powerful enough to see these. Yet, Airy argued, it was the duty of the Observatory to chart the position of all stars and planets so they might be used by navigators. The transit instrument that Airy's transit circle replaced was made by Edward Troughton of London, a famous instrument maker of the 18th century. He worked independently, on commission, from his workshop-cum-showroom, with the help of one or two assistants and apprentices and using an object glass from the optician, Peter Dollond.

Cult News Edward and Mrs Simpson Review: Royal crisis on DVD. Arguably, Edward Fox's finest hour, this momentous TV classsic comes out on DVD this week. It's as graceful, stately and slow-moving as a galleon. It takes nearly 400 minutes to tell the story of how a slightly silly king and a slightly silly woman fell in love, causing lots of beastly people to be mean to them. While the pace may have dated, the performances are still powerful - Fox, in particular, is great fun - managing to combine stubborn dignity and vanity, in a way that's rather poignant. He's joined by famous faces with strange hairstyles. Thrill to a youngish Nigel Hawthorne with a combover. Boggle at the sight of a bald Patrick Troughton playing Clement Attlee. Sadly, the series pretty much ends when Edward abdicates, which means we're missing much of the fun of the couple bumbling around the world in exile, flirting with fascism, playing golf and dressing well.

47. GRADUATION - LoveToKnow Article On GRADUATION The method of original graduation discovered by edward troughton is fully describedin the In 1793 edward troughton finished a circular dividing engine, http://3.1911encyclopedia.org/G/GR/GRADUATION.htm

GRADUATION GRADUATION (see also GRADTJATE),the art of dividing straight scales, circular arcs or whole circumferences into any required number of equal parts. It is the most important and difficult part of the work of the mathematical instrument maker, and is required in the construction of most physical, astronomical, nautical and surveying instruments. The art was first practised by clockmakers for cutting the teeth of their wheels at regular intervals; but so long as it was confined to them no particular delicacy or accurate nicety in its performance was required. This only arose when astronomy began to be seriously studied, and the exact position of the heavenly bodies to be determined, which created the necessity for strictly accurate means of measuring linear and angular magnitudes. Then it was seen that graduation was an art which required special talents and training, and the best artists gave great attention to the perfecting of astronomical instruments. Of these may be named Abraham Sharp (1651-1742), John Bird (1709-1776), John Smeaton (1724-1792), Jesse Ramsden (1735-1800), John Troughton, Edward Troughton (1753-1835), William Simms (1793-1860) and Andrew Ross. The first graduated instrument must have been done by the hand and eye alone, whether it was in the form of a straightedge with equal divisions, or a screw or a divided plate; but, once in the possession of one such divided instrument, it was a comparatively easy matter to employ it as a standard. Hence graduation divides itself into two distinct branches, original gradualion and copying, which latter may be done either by the hand or by a machine called a dividing engine. Graduation may therefore be treated under the three heads of original graduation, copying and machine gradualion.

2. Armagh Observatory: the early years Click on image for more information Fig.4 Bronze medallion by George Mossop of Dublin, 1789 with the inscription The heavens declare the glory of God Construction of the Armagh Observatory began in 1789 when Archbishop Robinson was eighty years of age. To mark the occasion, a medallion was struck by the great Irish medallist George Mossop. The obverse side shows a relief profile of Archbishop Robinson and the south elevation of the Observatory is on the reverse side. Click on image for more information Fig.5 The Act of the Irish Parliament (Grattan's) establishing the Armagh Observatory, 1791. For the site of his Observatory, Robinson chose the summit of Knockboy hill within the city limits to the northeast of Armagh. The architect was Francis Johnston , who was born at Kilmore, County Armagh, an apprentice and the successor, of Thomas Cooley. Johnston created a fairly plain classical Georgian mansion. Several false windows provide the necessary symmetry. The late Sir John Betjeman (Poet Laureate 1972 - 1984) had a high regard for Johnston's work claiming that he was the first man to be famous as an Irishman and an architect. The building is principally faced with a conglomerate sandstone with limestone trimmings. A fanned Armagh marble stairway leads up to the entrance door on the north facade. The south elevation has a prominent circular telescope tower bearing the date 1793 in Roman numerals. The Observatory was established by an Act of the Irish Parliament in 1791 following the appointment of Revd. Dr James Archibald Hamilton as the first Astronomer in July 1790. The Archbishop also donated 20 acres of the surrounding land to the Observatory in addition to the rent and tithes from estates at Tullynure and Derrynaught and the parish of Carlingford.

Featuring a typically waspish script by Simon Raven , the series lightly but plausibly sketches in the Prince of Wales' early amorous and sporting pursuits, while presenting the subsequent events that led to the constitutional crisis with great clarity and depth. The series also carefully juxtaposes Edward's frequent, and popular, visits to depressed areas with his opulent and carefree private life, and doesn't shy from showing his admiration for Mussolini in a pair of brief but pointed exchanges with Anthony Eden. The true nature and import of Edward's plaintive assertion "The people must take me as I am" lies at the heart of the series.
