Cox, M., 'Some Nottinghamshire Astronomers', Antiquarian Astronomer, Issue 4, January 2008, 23-34.
(NOTES: Illustrations, map. Bibliographical references. 'This paper summarises research into the lives of some of the astronomers who were born or worked in the English county of Nottinghamshire. Twelve individuals are mentioned, including the professional astronomers Norman Robert Pogson (1829-1891) and John Russell Hind (1823-1895); and the amateurs Robert White (1694-1773), Edward Gregory (1744-1824) and Joseph Whitehead (1784-1811). Collectively, these observers represent more than 300 years of local astronomical history, most of which is poorly documented. The rural south and east of the county was particularly rich in its clusters of observers, who were active within a few miles of each other. The interaction of these individuals would reward closer study.' | PLACE: Bingham; Eakring; Langar; Mansfield; Newark; Nottingham; Retford; Sutton in Ashfield; Upper Broughton; Worksop | SUBJECT: Science > Astronomy > Astronomers | ONLINE: Available online at the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System website | ISBN/ISSN: | PUBLICATION TYPE: Article in serial | ID NUMBER: 13107)
