Description

Explore the monumental observational work of William and Caroline Herschel in this detailed account of deep-sky discovery. This book covers the period from 1774 to 1817, focusing on the massive sweep campaign conducted between 1783 and 1802. Learn how William Herschel, assisted by his sister, published three catalogues containing 2500 objects. Beyond cataloging the deep sky, the text examines their studies of double stars and the Solar System, including the landmark discovery of Uranus in 1781. Readers will learn about William Herschel's technical contributions, such as building large reflectors and developing new methods to understand the nature and evolution of cosmic objects. It is an essential read for those interested in the history of astronomy and the legacy of the Herschel family.
