Product Information

Trained as a musician, amateur scientist William Herschel found international fame after discovering the planet Uranus in 1781. Together with his sister Caroline, he pioneered comprehensive surveys of the night sky, carefully categorising every visible object in the void. The Georgian Star guides readers through the depths of the solar system and into the protagonists? private lives. Erudite and accessible, The Georgian Star is a lively portrait of the pair who invented modern astronomy.
