Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As one of the oldest scientific institutions in the United States, the US Naval Observatory has a rich and colourful history. This volume is, first and foremost, a story of the relations between space, time and navigation, from the rise of the chronometer in the United States to the Global Positioning System of satellites, for which the Naval Observatory provides the time to a billionth of a second per day. It is a story of the history of technology, in the form of telescopes, lenses, detectors, calculators, clocks and computers over 170 years. It describes how one scientific institution under government and military patronage has contributed, through all the vagaries of history, to almost two centuries of unparalleled progress in astronomy. Sky and Ocean Joined will appeal to historians of science, technology, scientific institutions and American science, as well as astronomers, meteorologists and physicists.

The general impression among astronomers, after the observations of 1761 had been discussed, was that too much reliance had been placed on Delisle's method. ' Experience, ' wrote J. D. Cassini, later, in his ' Histoire du Passage de 1769, 'is our chief instructor; the fruit of its lessons indemnifies us for the value of the years they cost us. The principal end had been missed, in 1761, for want of observations in places where the durations differed sufficiently. It was essential not to experience a second time the same disadvantage.' Among the first statements published respecting the transit of 1769 was that by the ingenious Ferguson, who wrote as follows in 1762: ' On the 3rd of June, in the year 1769, Venus will again pass over the sun's disc, in such a manner as to afford a much easier and better method of investigating the sun's parallax than her transit in the year 1761 has done. But no part of Britain will be proper for observing that transit,1 so as to deduce anything with respect to the sun's parallax from it, because it will begin but a little before sunset, and will be quite over before two o'clock next morning. The apparent time of conjunction of the sun and Venus, according to Dr. Halley's tables, will be at thirteen minutes past ten o'clock at London, at which time the geocentric latitude of Venus will be full ten minutes of a degree north from the sun's centre; and therefore, as seen from the northern parts of the earth, Venus will be considerably depressed by a parallax of latitude on the sun's disc; on which account the visible duration of the transit will be .lengthened; and in the southern parts of the earth she will be elevated by a parallax of latitude on the sun, which will shorten...
