Extractions: Caroline Herschel Caroline Herschel era una cantante, una matematica e un' astronoma Caroline Herschel nacque in Germania nel 1750. Era una di sei fratelli. Suo padre era un musicista. Voleva che tutti i suoi figli studiassero il francese, la matematica e la musica. La madre di Caroline pensava invece che l'educazione fosse una perdita di tempo per una ragazza. Faceva fare a Caroline la maggior parte dei lavori domestici. Quando aveva dieci anni, Caroline si ammalò di una malattia chiamata tifo. Questa malattia bloccò la sua crescita. Non diventò mai più alta di 1 metro e 30 centimetri. Quando aveva ventidue anni, Caroline andò a vivere con suo fratello in Inghilterra. Il fratello di Caroline, William, le insegnò il canto e la matematica. William era molto interessato all'astronomia e insegnò a Caroline anche questa scienza. Caroline Herschel aiutava il fratello nel suo lavoro. Imparò perfino come levigare il vetro per costruire un telescopio . Cominciò a usare i telescopi anche per fare lei stessa delle osservazioni e delle scoperte. Caroline Herschel scoprì tre nuove nebulose dove si formano stelle. Fu anche la prima donna a scoprire una

Extractions: Caroline Lucretia Herschel Caroline Herschel nasce ad Hannover in Germania, mentre questo territorio fa parte del regno Britannico. A 21 anni raggiunge in Inghilterra il fratello, l'astronomo William Herschel . Segue con interesse le ricerche del fratello e ne viene coinvolta diventando ben presto competente ed esperta di astronomia. Raggiunge risultati scientifici di rilievo anche se il suo impegno è tutto indirizzato a evidenziare i meriti del fratello, lasciando a se stessa la parte di collaboratrice. Nel 1781, William Herschel giunge alla scoperta del pianeta Urano, con un telescopio da lui stesso costruito , ed inizia un lungo e paziente lavoro di osservazioni sul sistema solare che gli permetterà di classificare stelle e nebulos e. Dopo la sua morte nel 1822, il suo lavoro viene continuato con risultati notevoli dal figlio John, grande amico di Babbage ATTIVITA' SCIENTIFICA Caroline segue con interesse e dedizione le ricerche del fratello, trascrivendo risultati e analisi.

http://homepage1.nifty.com/herschel/p-text/chdoctor-e.html

Extractions: Caroline Herschel In the beginning of last (1992) July a Herschel descendant John and Esther Herschel-Shorland, Diss, Norfolk, UK, wrote to us that "We are enjoyng the English summer. The roses are paricularly beautiful, and are enjoying picking our own strawberries." They enclosed a copy of a letter dated 1843, just 150 years ago, to tell the state of Caroline Herschel. The letter was written by Dr Muehry in Hanover, who visited Caroline Herschel on her 93rd birthday and was addressed to Sir and Lady Herschel in Slough. Mr and Mrs Herschel-Shorland kindly allowed us to publish the letter in our Newsletter and the following is a part of it. I have just come from Miss Herschel, whose birthday has been celebrated today. It was a glorious day for her and all her friends. I found the old lady very gay and quite well, surrounded by flowers and other presents. Your letters and your childrens' letters were laying before her and she joyfully showed them to me. She had already had many visits. Shortly before my arrival the carriage of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went away, who had come with his young wife to congratulate Miss Herschel on her 93rd birthday. They stayed more than half an hour and left a great nosegay of the finest flowers out of Herrnhaussen, and wrote their names in Miss Herschel's address book. All this had put in the newspapers. I had already promised Miss Herschel since several years to assist her in case of a sickness, and I have since been her doctor and have been so much interested in her state of health that I know everything about it. Until now she had not needed any true medicine.

http://www.hao.ucar.edu/public/education/sp/images/herschel.html

Extractions: William [Wilhelm Friedrich] Herschel was born on 15 November 1738 in Hanover, in a family of musicians. In 1757, at age 19, he fled to England. With his name anglicized to William, Herschel began earning a living as an organist and later composer and conductor. In 1772 convinced his sister Caroline to join him as an accompanying singer. In their spare time the brother-sister team became engaged in astronomy, in particular in the building of ever greater size and magnifying power. William died at his home in Slough, near Windsor, on August 25 1822, and Caroline on September 1 1848. Herschel's first major discoveries were to show that Mars and Jupiter exhibit axial rotation. Herschel struck fame in 1781, when on March 13 he discovered the planet Uranus while engaged in work aimed at determining stellar parallax. This being the first new planet discovered since Antiquity, Herschel, until then a mere amateur astronomer relatively unknown even in England, became a celebrity. Adopting an historically proven strategy, Herschel named the new planet Georgium Sidum , in honor of the then ruling English monarch George III. The trick worked once again, as King George III gave William and Caroline the titles of "The King's Astronomer" and "Assistant to the King's Astronomer", an honor which came with a life's pension for both. In 1782 they moved to Bath, and shortly thereafter to Slough, near Windsor, and from this point on William and Caroline could devote themselves entirely to astronomy. The Heschels went on to discover two moons of Uranus in 1787, and two new moons of Saturn.

Extractions: Astronomer Caroline Herschel (1750-1848) Caroline Herschel was a tiny woman. The typhus fever that she had as a child stunted her growth, and her full adult height was only 4 feet 3 inches. But despite her small size, there was nothing small about Caroline's accomplishments. She was the world's first modern woman astronomer and worked with her brother William building telescopes and cataloging discoveries. Astronomers of that time focused much of their attention on finding comets, and Caroline found eight of them. Since women could not be regular members of England's Royal Astronomical Society, she was awarded an honorary membership in recognition of her achievements. Caroline was born in Germany on March 16, 1750. Books about Caroline Herschel Subscribe to Women's Stories!

He followed in his father's marching footsteps, joining the Hanoverian guard as an oboist. With a Hanoverian King on the throne, Britain was really not very foreign at all, and Herschel moved to England to parlay his military musicianship into a teaching career in 1755, finally ending up among the gentry at Bath in 1766. He acquired an interest in astronomy, and started to build his own telescopes, developing and refining the reflector design first suggested by Newton to avoid problems with poor glass optics. Herschel cast and polished his own mirrors, producing ever bigger and better telescopes. In 1772, he invited his sister Caroline to join him as an assistant in his musical business, and she duly moved to Bath. Both watched the skies. In 1781, William discovered the planet Uranus. For millennia, man had been aware of only six planets, five of them wandering the skies and visible with the naked eye. The discovery of a new planet (named by Herschel - albeit briefly - Georgium Sidus in honour of the then King) inspired Herschel to quit his career as a musician and teacher and concentrate full-time on astronomy. King George appointed William his private astronomer, and the Herschels moved to Slough, near the castle at Windsor.
