Thank you, George, for a most fascinating post. Halley was an iconic figure in my childhood (ca 1940) for his successful prediction of the comet. I had no idea of these other acomplishments. This is why I keep subscribed to this list, even though I haven't done celestial for several years. Rodney Myrvaagnes J36 Gjo/a Ask not where the buck stops. . . . .
