- Title
Old and New Astronomy.
- Authors
PROCTOR-SMYTH, S. D.
- Abstract
IN your notice of the 'Old and New Astronomy,' your reviewer has, I think, misunderstood the passage with respect to reflecting telescopes, on p. 45, which he refers to as indicating that Mr. Proctor supposed that the image in the principal focus of a reflecting telescope was affected with chromatic aberration or false colouring. Section 97, to which I conclude your reviewer refers, evidently refers to the magnified image which enters the eye of an observer when a 'real image of an object is submitted to microscopical examination.'
