O Homem que realizou inestimáveis contribuições em diversos campos da ciência. No decurso da sua longa vida, Edmond Halley realizou inestimáveis contribuições em diversos campos da ciência. Edmond Halley nasceu em 1656 perto de Londres numa família de um acomodado comerciante de sal. Antes de terminar os seus estudos no Queen's College de Oxford (1676), colaborou na observação de um eclipse lunar em Greenwisch, observatório fundado e dirigido pelo primeiro real astrónomo, John Flamsteed (1646 - 1714). Fez uma viagem à ilha Santa Helena, onde observou as Nuvens de Magalhães e da passagem de Mercúrio no disco Solar, verificado a 28 de Outubro de 1677, e de onde trouxe os dados necessários para compilar um Catálogo das Estrelas Meridionais, que publicou aos vinte e dois anos e que lhe valeu o epíteto de "Tycho do sul".

http://www.devine-ent.com/shows/inventors/n-edmond.shtml

Extractions: Edmond Halley in "Isaac Newton: A Tale of Two Isaacs" Adrian Hough personifies perfectly the attributes of competitiveness yet supportiveness that make Edmond Halley one of the few contemporaries Newton trusts and respects. "Aside from being quite brilliant himselffor example, he invented the diving bellHalley was very much an enabler of other scientists," says Hough. "He was good at getting them to cooperate for the greater good of the Royal Society. But he was especially close to Newton. For example, he edited the 'Principia,' which sometimes meant actually sifting through Newton's messy stacks of notes and convincing Newton that he was on to something brilliant." Playing Halley in DEC's Isaac Newton was "one of the largest, nicest parts I've ever done," he addsnice, he elaborates, because it taps into why he loves acting. "I love the chance to go into another person's life, and if you do it right, someone else can see inside too. We tend to think of these inventorsNewton, of course, but also Halleyas being these brilliant, stern, intimidating creatures, and I hope our performances, mine included, can show young viewers what it was really like to be those people." He and Marina live in Rosedale with their two-year-old daughter, Sophie. When time permits, Hough plays pickup basketball and works out at the gym.

Extractions: English astronomer and mathematician, Savilian professor of geometry at Oxford, strong supporter of Isaac Newton, member of the Royal Society, first to detect the proper motion of stars, discovered the 76-year cycle of the comet that bears his name. Edmond Halley was born on October 29, 1656 in the village of Haggerston, England. Today, this village is part of London. Halley was the son of a prosperous land owner. He eventually attended the St. Paul's school where he was appointed captain in 1671. It is a position similar to today's student body president. Halley did very well in school and attended the Queen's college in Oxford in 1673. He became a member of the Royal Society at the age of 22. Halley was appointed Savilian professor of geometry at Oxford in 1704. In 1720 he succeeded John Flamsteed as astronomer royal. Halley was an extremely talented scientist in many disciplines. He supported Isaac Newton both morally and financially, and was partly responsible for persuading him to publish his works. From the island of Saint Helena, Halley catalogued the positions of around 350 Southern Hemisphere stars and observed a transit of Mercury. He believed that this phenomenon and future transits of Venus be used to determine the distance of the Sun. Halley also used the the first transit instrument at the Greenwich Observatory and devised a method for determining longitude at sea by means of lunar observations. In 1710, comparing current star positions with those listed in Ptolemy's catalog, he deduced that the stars must have a slight motion of their own, and he detected this proper motion in three stars.

Extractions: Sir Edmond Halley Sir Edmond Halley (1656 - 1742) war ein Englischer Astronom . Er wurde berühmt durch die Erforschung der Kometen und durch die Entdeckung, daß Kometen, die viele Jahre voneinander entfernt erschienen waren, die Sonne auf ähnlichen Umlaufbahnen umkreisen. Besonders fielen ihm die Kometen von 1531, 1607 und 1682 auf. Halley behauptete, daß es sich bei diesen Erscheinugen um ein und denselben Kometen handelte. Er sagte voraus, daß dieser Komet im Jahre 1758 zurückkehren würde. Als dieser Komet wie vorhergesagt erschien, wurde er zu Halleys Ehren der "Halleysche Komet" genannt.

Edmond Halley And The Magnetic Field Of The Earth

http://www.pubs.royalsoc.ac.uk/not_rec/abstracts/sept2001cook.htm

Extractions: by Sir Alan Cook FRS Edmond Halley was interested in magnetism from his schooldays to the end of his life, and of all his notable contributions to natural knowledge, his survey of the magnetic field over the Atlantic Ocean surely stands out both for its achievement at the time and for its lasting value. His identification of the westerly drift and his speculations about its origin, his description of aurorae and his connection of them with the geomagnetic field, all demonstrate his physical insight, the grounds for which have only quite recently become apparent. How profound were Halleys studies of geomagnetism has become much more evident in the 57 years that have passed since Sidney Chapmans Halley lecture on the same topic; the advances in geophysics that have taken place in the intervening years are my justification for returning to the subject.

http://www.astrored.org/astrofotos/apod/index.php/ap960706.html

Extractions: Sir Edmond Halley was quite a discoverer. Born in 1656, he computed in 1705 that a bright comet was periodic and would make another appearance in 1758. The comet appeared as predicted and is now known as Comet Halley . Unfortunately, Halley died in 1742 and never saw his prediction come true. In 1716 Halley proposed two types of diving bells that would enable people to explore the deep sea. Halley pioneered our understanding of trade winds, tides, cartography, naval navigation, mortality tables, and stellar proper motions. Halley (incorrectly) proposed that the Earth was made of concentric spheres the size of the inner planets each of which might contain life. Perhaps Halley's greatest discovery, however, was that his contemporary Isaac Newton had discovered a powerful mathematical formulation of gravity.
