The book ""Catalogue Of 1905 Stars For The Equinox 1865-1870, From Observations Made At The Royal Observatory, Cape Of Good Hope, During The Years 1861-1870"" was written by David Gill and published in 1899. The book is a comprehensive catalogue of 1905 stars that were observed at the Royal Observatory in Cape of Good Hope during the years 1861-1870. The stars are listed for the equinox of 1865-1870 and are arranged in order of right ascension. The book includes detailed information about each star, including its position, magnitude, and other relevant data. The book is a valuable resource for astronomers and researchers interested in the stars and their movements during the period covered by the observations. It is also a testament to the work of David Gill, who was an accomplished astronomer and the director of the Royal Observatory at Cape of Good Hope during the time the observations were made. Overall, this book is an important contribution to the field of astronomy and a fascinating glimpse into the study of stars in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Heliometer Observations for Determination of Stellar Parallax Made at the Royal Observatory, Cape of Good Hope (1893) is a scientific book written by David Gill. The book contains a detailed account of the observations made using a heliometer, a device used for measuring the angles between two celestial objects, to determine the parallax of stars. The observations were made at the Royal Observatory in Cape of Good Hope during the year 1893. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the data obtained from the observations and discusses the methods used for determining the parallax of stars. It also includes detailed descriptions of the equipment used and the processes involved in making the observations. The book is a valuable resource for astronomers and researchers interested in the study of stellar parallax and celestial mechanics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
