A biography of the brother and sister who helped found modern astronomyDiscoverers of the Universe tells the gripping story of William Herschel the brilliant fiercely ambitious emotionally complex musician and composer who became court astronomer to Britains King George III and of Williams sister Caroline who assisted him in his observations of the night sky and became an accomplished astronomer in her own right Together they transformed our view of the universe from the unchanging mechanical creation of Newtons clockmaker god to the everevolving incredibly dynamic cosmos that it truly isWilliam was in his forties when his amateur observations using a homemade telescope led to his discovery of Uranus and an invitation to King Georges court He coined the term asteroid discovered infrared radiation was the first to realize that our solar system is moving through space discovered 2500 nebulae that form the basis of the catalog astronomers use today and was unrivalled as a telescope builder Caroline shared Williams passion for astronomy recording his observations during night watches and organizing his papers for publication She was the first salaried woman astronomer in history a pioneer who herself discovered nine comets and became a role model for women in the sciencesWritten by the worlds premier expert on the Herschels Discoverers of the Universe traces William and Carolines many extraordinary contributions to astronomy shedding new light on their productive but complicated relationship and setting their scientific achievements in the context of their personal struggles largerthanlife ambitions bitter disappointments and astonishing triumphs. caroline@kcic.org.uk Website: www.livingchangeuk.com My background has always been in teaching and business.
