Evidence for Recurrent Auroral Activity in the Twelfth and Seventeenth Centuriesese and five Korean descriptions of auroral displays were recorded in various East Asian histories between the middle of 1127 and the middle of 1129. These ten Oriental auroral records correspond to six distinct auroral events, which provide evidence for recurrent, though possibly intermittent, auro

Annular Eclipses and Considerations About Solar and Lunar Angular Diameters in Medieval Astronomyo revise Ptolemaic ideas, and come up with acceptable alternatives. Accordingly, non-Ptolemaic ideas concerning the angular diameters of the Sun and Moon were adopted from Indian astronomy, inserted into the Ptolemaic model, and eventually transferred to European astronomy. Finally, by the late medi

This is in marked contrast to the comet and eclipse records, which both show a nearly uniform rate of events. However, examining the sunspot records from Korea and China in detail reveals striking similaritie

The Clash Between William Herschel and the Great German ‘Amateur’ Astronomer Johann Schroeter, Venusian and Saturnian work. Their very different world views, as revealed by their telescopes, was the subject of a book by August Gelpke. Nowhere were these world views in starker juxtaposition than in their observations of and conclusions about Ceres and Pallas. They measured diameters in the s
