| Content and context |
Lunar tables, with calculations from lunar data of 1694-1695 and notes on Jeremiah Horrocks's lunar theory. There are also tables of right ascensions and polar distances for inscribing lines of latitude and longitude on charts of the constellations. The tables are not in Flamsteed's hand, but possibly that of James Hodgson. The contents date from 1701-1708, with the exception of the notes, which are later. |
