James Glaisher attended St Paul's School in London, winning a scholarship in 1867 to study at Trinity College, Cambridge. His mathematical researches began while he was still an undergraduate and he wrote a paper on the sine integral, cosine integral and exponential integral giving tables of these integrals which he had computed himself. The paper was communicated to the Royal Society by Cayley In the final examination of 1871 Glaisher was placed second. Elected to a fellowship at Trinity College, he became a tutor and lecturer and taught at Cambridge all his life. In the same year in which he graduated Glaisher joined the Royal Astronomical Society and so began a long association with that Society. In 1872 he joined the London Mathematical Society. He went on to hold high office in both these Societies, being President of the Royal Astronomical Society from 1886 to 1888 and again from 1901 to 1903, and President of the London Mathematical Society 1884-1886. Glaisher wrote over 400 articles on his main interests of astronomy

GLAIR (from Fr. glaire, probably from Lat. clarus, clear, bright), the white of an egg, and hence a term used for a preparation made of this and used, in bookbinding and in gilding, to retain the gold and as a varnish. The adjective “glairy” is used of substances having the viscous and transparent consistency of the white 01 an egg. GLAMIS, a village and parish of Forfarshire, Scotland, 53/4 m. W. by S. of Forfar by the Caledonian railway. Pop. of parish (1901) 1351. The name is sometimes spelled Glammis and the i is mute: it is derived from the Gaelic, glamhus, “ a wide gap,” and other examples occur at the Hunters’ Hill and in the old kirkyard of Eassie.

Een gravure uit het midden van de 19de eeuw drijft de spot met Charles Greens voorliefde voor steeds langere vluchten. Green (in het midden in lichte jas) wordt hier verwelkomt door een volksstam op een eiland van de Antipoden in de stille Zuidzee - precies aan de andere kant van de aardbol. Van Calais dreef de ballon boven Ieper, Brussel, Luik en stak de Rijn over in de buurt van Koblenz, alvorens te dalen op een afstand van 12 kilometer van Weilburg om half acht ’s morgens op 8 november. Gedurende 17 ½ uur hadden de luchtvaarders een afstand van bijna 800 kilometer afgelegd, de langste luchtreis die op dat ogenblik ooit was gemaakt. Enige jaren later kwam Green op de stoutmoedige gedachte de Atlantische Oceaan over te steken per ballon. Hij bestudeerde zorgvuldig de luchtstromingen en construeerde een modelballon voorzien van een roer, welke werd voortbewogen door 4 kleine draaiende waaiers, doch hij slaagde er niet in dit project te verwezenlijken. Gedurende verscheidene jaren bleef Green als luchtvaarder werkzaam, doch in 1852 deelde hij mee dat hij de ballonvaart vaarwel zou zeggen na zijn 500ste opstijging. Deze vond plaats op 13 november van dat jaar en verliep gunstig.

    Eminent Victorian Balloons James Glaisher Airships Zeppelins ... The Machines I n 1862 the British Association for the Advancement of Science decided to fund a series of flights to study the upper atmosphere. The balloons would have to fly as high as possible. Member of the Greenwich Observatory and founder member of the British Meteorological Society, James Glaisher (1809-1903), volunteered to perform these potentially dangerous flights. In all he made 28 ascents between 1862 and 1866, 13 of which were funded by the Association. His usual pilot was the experienced balloonist Henry Coxwell (1819-1900). On their first ascent of 17 July 1862 they reached an altitude of 26,177 ft. without oxygen. On 5 September, in a balloon called the Mars , they managed an altitude in the region of 30,000 ft., although it almost cost them their lives. Glaisher lost consciousness and Coxwell had to climb up into the rigging to free a tangled valve line. His hands were so paralysed with cold that he had to pull the chord with his teeth in order to check their ascent. Had he failed to manage it, they would both surely have died of hypothermia or oxygen starvation. Here is Glaisher's account: O U p to this time I had experienced no particular inconvenience. When at the height of 26,000 ft. I could not see the fine column of the mercury in the tube; then the fine divisions on the scale of the instrument became invisible. At that time I asked Mr.Coxwell to help me to read the instruments, as I experienced a difficulty in seeing them. In consequence of the rotary movement of the balloon, which had continued without ceasing since the earth was left, the valve line had become twisted, and he had to leave the car

    Flammarion Airships Zeppelins ... The Machines L I t seems the Frenchman was more susceptible to hypoxia than Glaisher, despite being younger and fitter. He noted that at an altitude of little over 10,000 ft. he experienced drowsiness, palpitations, shortness of breath and singing in the ears, and on landing suffered from a "fit of incessant gasping." On later flights, at slightly greater altitude, his throat and lungs became uncomfortable and found blood upon his lips. Glaisher comments stiffly in a footnote: "I have never experienced any of these effects till I had long passed the heights reached by M. Flammarion, and at no elevation was there the presence of blood." F lammarion also made some observations on air currents that conflicted with Glaisher's experience. "It appears to me," he wrote, "that two or more currents, flowing in different directions, are very rarely met with as we rise in the air, and when two layers of cloud appear to travel in opposite directions the effect is generally caused by the motion of one layer being more rapid than the other, when the latter appears to be moving in a contrary direction." However, all fliers will recognise his description of the strong air flows in front of an active storm cloud. He was drawn towards such a thunderstorm at the speed of an express train by a 'species of attraction' that he could not understand. A nother phenomena observed was patches of mist hanging stationary over the top of a wood despite the strong wind that was blowing. This effect must have been due to cloud continually forming where moist air was deflected up into colder air by the trees. A similar phenomenon is more usually noticed above mountain ranges where 'lenticular' clouds form.
