Bond 394 = 1.3s slow. C's Watch. 13 55 43 First signal. 14 05 23 Long break. 14 06 53 Last movement. Large aperture put on. 14 08 33 First movement. 14 10 23 Last movement. Small aperture put on. 14 11 23 First movement. 14 15 43 Ended. Last movement. It was somewhat hazy over region at time of start. Very thick at time of close. * C 11756 Shall we assume time of starting = 11h 11m? Time of starting was 11:13 instead of 13:11. (completed from mean time of starting & ending in remarks) Therefore H.A. must have been 3 07 E instead of 3 17 as Jupiter was in centre of field. H.R.C. Feby 6. 1899. Is the above correction right? Applying H.A. (3 07) to time of starting (11 13) would make centre of plate 14h 20m & according to almanac Jupiter has not been in that pos. for about a month. Also next plate checks for 14h 30m which is about right pos. for Jupiter on Feb. 4 1899. It seems that the original H.A. is correct. H.R.C. | ||||
