Title | Paper, 'Observations of the eclipses of Jupiter's satellites from 1700 to 1727' by William Derham |
Date | 1727 |
Description | As exact tables to calculate the eclipses of the satellites, would be of very great service to find the longitude of places; so I have some hope that these observations of some of them, in more revolutions that one of Jupiter, may be of use to correct or make such Tables.
