But there was a time, before the successful application of photography to the heavens, in which scientists had to rely on handmade drawings of these mysterious phenomena. Observing by Hand sheds entirely new light on the ways in which the production and reception of handdrawn images of the nebulae in the nineteenth century contributed to astronomical observation. Omar W. Nasim investigates hundreds of unpublished observing books. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 19th century|2fast 648 7 1800-1899|2fast 650 0 Nebulae|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85090538|xObservations|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99001968|xHistory|y19th century.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002006167 650 0 Astronomers|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85008992|xHistory|y19th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002006167 650 0 Astronomy|xHistory|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008117630|y19th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002012475 650 7 Nebulae.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1035327 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Astronomers.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/819629 650 7 Astronomy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/819673 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|z9780226084374|z022608437X|w(DLC) 2013016608 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=577505|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
