Franz Ignaz Cassian Hallaschka anđ his book "Elementa Eclipsium" MARTIN ŠOLC Praha*) Received 11. December 1998 On August 11, 1999, the Moon's shadow will traverse the Northern Hemisphere. A total eclipse of the Sun will be visible from within a narrow strip (ca 110 km wide) that begins in the Adantic Ocean at sunrise, crosses southern England, France, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Turkey, Middle East, India and ends in the Bengal Bay at sunset. A partial eclipse will be visible from a much larger area, reaching several thousand kilometers to both sides of the umbral path. Detailed maps of the umbral and penumbral tracks with time marks, duration of the eclipse and some other characteristics were computed long before the eclipse day, e.g. by F. Espenak and J. Anderson [1] (March 1997). The computations were carried out on the basis of the contemporary theories of the motion of Earth and Moon, including all known effects influencing it: planetary perturbations, precession according to the theory accepted by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) in 1976, nutation theory IAU 1980, polar motion, irregularities in the rotation of the Earth, the shape of the Earth etc.

Different methods of observing meteors are presented: besides the traditional counts of individual events, exact methods yield also data on the geometry of the atmospheric trajectory; on the dynamics and ablation of the body in the atmosphere; on radiation; on the spectral distribution of radiation; on ionization; on accompanying sounds; and also data on orbits.

They have also been called planetoids, especially the larger ones. These terms have historically been applied to any astronomical object orbiting the Sun that did not show the disk of a planet and was not observed to have the characteristics of an active comet, but as small objects in the outer Solar System were discovered, their volatile-based surfaces were found to more closely resemble comets, and so were often distinguished from traditional asteroids.[1] Thus the term asteroid has come increasingly to refer Animation of asteroid 433 Eros in rotation. specifically to the small bodies of the inner Solar System out to the orbit of Jupiter. They are grouped with the outer bodies—centaurs, Neptune trojans, and trans-Neptunian objects—as minor planets, which is the term preferred in astronomical circles.[2] In this article the term "asteroid" refers to the minor planets of the inner Solar System.

    ASTRONOMY OF TO-DAY THE TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE SUN OF AUGUST 30TH, 1905. The Corona; from a water-colour sketch, made at Burgos, in Spain, during the total phase, by the French Artist, Mdlle. ANDRÉE MOCH. ASTRONOMY OF TO-DAY A POPULAR INTRODUCTION IN NON-TECHNICAL LANGUAGE By CECIL G. DOLMAGE, M.A., LL.D., D.C.L. Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society; Member of the British Astronomical Association; Member of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific; Membre de la Société Astronomique de France; Membre de la Société Belge d'Astronomie With a Frontispiece in Colour and 45 Illustrations & Diagrams THIRD EDITION LONDON SEELEY AND CO. LIMITED 38 GREAT RUSSELL STREET 1910 PREFACE THE object of this book is to give an account of the science of Astronomy, as it is known at the present day, in a manner acceptable to the general reader. It is too often supposed that it is impossible to acquire any useful knowledge of Astronomy without much laborious study, and without adventuring into quite a new world of thought. The reasoning applied to the study of the celestial orbs is, however, of no different order from that which is employed in the affairs of everyday life. The science of mathematics is perhaps responsible for the idea that some kind of difference does exist; but mathematical processes are, in effect, no more than ordinary logic in concentrated form, the shorthand of reasoning, so to speak. I have attempted in the following pages to take the main facts and theories of Astronomy out of those mathematical forms which repel the general reader, and to present them in the ordinary language of our workaday world.
