For a long time after the explora- tions of Herschel, the reflector con- tinued to be looked upon as the prin- cipal instrument for discovery, says T. J. J. See in Forum, This was due partly to the fact that the reflector is fie ble of being made of enormous gize—it having been impossible be- fore the time of Fraunhofer to pro- duce large homogeneous piecea of glass suitable for lenses of refractors —and partly because in Herschel’s hands the reflector had achieved re- sults of great value both to his own and to the succeeding generations. Thus the influence of tradition—al- ways very powerful, even in scientific circles—was in this instance aug- mented by the example of Herschel’s unprecedented success, which, in con- junction with the difficulty of produe- ing large lenses, gave the reflecting telescope the foren place till after the middle of this centary. The completion of Lord Rosse’s six-foot reflector at Pars¢ n, Tre- land, in 1845, was the frat important step toward an increase of power over that developed by the Herschels. This giant tube at once opened new views of clusters and nebulae; some of the latter being resolved into stars. It appears, however, that the great mir- yor never gave good definition, The defect in deflnition arose partly from the diMflculty of mounting the mirror eo as to preserve its geometrical figure when turned into different positions, | | i Roberts maintain the ancient trac tion by the manufacture and use of large telescopic mirrors, with which they have obtained good results in work on nebulae and other vague ob Sects not requiring very sharp defini tion. Neither tie silver-or ss mir- ror, constructed and used at Paris nor the large reflector at Melbourne, has been very productive of new revelations; and, cc ecnt years astronomers have pract ally ceased to look to reflectors for im- portant discoveries. sequently, in re HIS MODEST AMBITION.
