Framed Print of Astronomical instruments, 17th century
Astronomical instruments. 17th-century diagrams showing various instruments used in astronomy, including a quadrant and a universal joint. This page is from Some Animadversions on the First Part of Hevelius (1674) by English scientist Robert Hooke (1635-1703). This work was a criticism of a work a year earlier (Machina Coelestis, 1673) by the Polish astronomer Johannes Hevelius (1611-1687), where Hevelius described his observatory. Hookes work also contained descriptions and explanations of some of his scientific instruments. This page includes various mechanisms relating to equatorial telescopes and clock drives. Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © ROYAL ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY
