Munsey's Magazine, April 1910

1910 · 144 pages

Munsey's Magazine (April 1910) features "The Return of Halley's Comet and Its Passage Between the Earth and the Sun," a scientific article by Professor T.J.J. See of Mare Island Naval Observatory. See explains the comet's seventy-five-year orbital period and its predicted May 18 transit across the solar disk. He traces the comet's documented history from 240 B.C. through its 1835 appearance, including its 1066 sighting recorded in the Bayeux Tapestry. The article discusses Edmund Halley's 1705 discovery of periodicity, Isaac Newton's gravitation laws enabling these calculations, and mathematicians' precise orbit determinations accounting for planetary perturbations. See assures readers the comet poses no danger, describes its expected brightness and tail dimensions (possibly forty-five degrees), and details scientific expeditions planned to observe the transit from Pacific locations like Hawaii. He notes Earth may pass through the comet's tail, creating an illumination in night skies.
