Transcription Notes:
This document contains observational data and notes, likely taken during an astronomical survey. Astronomical Context: The observations focus on α Lyrae, Measurements and Levels: Data is categorized by azimuthal or angular positions (noted as Alt. Souther), with specific measurements taken at labeled points (A, B, C, D, E). Leveling data appears to ensure precise alignment of the instrument or telescope. These values confirm the instrument’s stability and adjustment during observations. Environmental Notes: Mentions such as "Star pretty steady but not well defined" and "Wind SW½ but cleared off" provide context for observing conditions. They note factors that may affect data accuracy. Instrument Alignment: Adjustments such as "Level & Pairs covered with wires" and "First pair S + 0.2" indicate attempts to correct for systematic errors. Date and Time: Specific dates (Jan 31, Feb 4) and times (10 o’clock) confirm that observations were logged systematically. ---Reopened from complete 1/7/2025: Read the project instructions for symbols, tables, and underlines. They are here: https://transcription.si.edu/instructions-women-computers-workbooks ---------- Reopened for Editing 2025-01-12 15:05:49 Administrators: Is this right: [[delta]] + .02 where it is talking about Level first pair, or should it be S + .2". Thanks.
