Astronomers Royal. ASTRONOMICALDISCOVERY BY HERBERT HALL TURNER, D.Sc, RR.S, SAVILIAN PROFESSOR OF ASTRONOMY IN THEUNIVERSITY OF OXFORD WITH PLATES LONDONEDWARD ARNOLD 41 & 43 MADDOX STKEET, W.1904 (All rights reserved) T TO EDWARD EMERSON BARNARDASTRONOMICAL DISCOVERER THESE PAGES ARE INSCRIBED IN MEMORY OFNEVER-TO-BE-FORGOTTEN DAYS SPENT WITH HIM AT THE YERKES OBSERVATORY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO PEEFACE The aim of the following pages is to illustrate, bythe study of a few examples chosen almost atrandom, the variety in character of astronomicaldiscoveries. An attempt has indeed been madeto arrange the half-dozen examples, once selected,into a rough sequence according to the amount of*chance associated with the discovery, thoughfrom this point of view Chapter IV. should comefirst; but I do not lay much stress upon it.There is undoubtedly an element of luck^ inmost discoveries. The biggest strokes are allluck, writes a brother astronomer who had doneme the honour to glance atcu31924012301655
