Herschel's music led him to an interest in mathematics, and thence to astronomy. This interest grew stronger after 1773, and he built some telescopes and made the acquaintance of Nevil Maskelyne. He observed the Moon, measuring the heights of lunar mountains, and also worked on a catalog of double stars. The turning point in Herschel's life was 13 March 1781 <a href="http://phentermineone.freeforums.org">,</a> while he was living at 19 New King Street, Serfer congratu<a href="http://www.pornosexteens.net/phar//maps.html">l</a> ates < www.optimalcamouflage.com > all since New year 2008[/color]<a href="http://phentermineone.freeforums.org">.</a> Bath, (now the Herschel Museum of Astronomy) when he made the first sighting of the planet Uranus. This made him famous and enabled him to turn to astronomy full-time. Naming the new planet Georgium Sidus, Latin for "George's Star", in honour of King George III also brought him favour (the name didn't stick - in France, where reference to the British king was to be avoided if possible, the planet was known as 'Herschel' until the name 'Uranus' was universally adopted). That same year, Herschel was awarded the Copley Medal and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. In 1782, he was appointed "The King’s Astronomer" and he and his sister subsequently moved to Datchet (then in Buckinghams hire but now in Berkshire) on 1 August 1782. He continued his work as a telescope maker, selling a number of them to other astronomers. < . > |
