Revision history of "Stellar aberration"

This is a list of past revisions of Stellar aberration. Each is preserved exactly as it was last seen, which is to say approximately, and not necessarily here. Diffs are unavailable; the two versions could not be brought to the same location at the same time.

• cur | prev May 2018 T. Vogel (talk | contribs) . . (2,080 bytes) (+320) . . (→ In this encyclopedia: the effect is real, the null result is real, and the only invented thing on the page is the sentence somebody put between them)
• cur | prev 1925 D. Miller (talk | contribs) . . (1,760 bytes) (+60) m . . (→ talk: I have a drift at Mount Wilson which may bear upon this. it does not point where the aberration points ~~~~)
• cur | prev 1911 the Mud Geometer (talk | contribs) . . (1,700 bytes) (+40) . . (I HAVE WATCHED THE SAME STAR COME UP OVER THE SAME HEDGE FOR THIRTY YEER. IT DONT WOBBLE. THIS HOLE PAGE IS WOBBLE)
• cur | prev 1905 A. Einstein (talk | contribs) . . (1,660 bytes) (+130) . . (→ struck the dragging altogether; the composition of the velocities supplies the coefficient and requires no medium to be carried. the water was never the point and the tube was never the point)
• cur | prev 1895 H. Lorentz (talk | contribs) . . (1,530 bytes) (+100) . . (→ the fraction comes out of the transformation on its own, with nothing dragged by anybody. Fresnel had the number right and the reason wrong, which is the commonest way of being right)
• cur | prev 1884 G. Airy (talk | contribs) . . (1,430 bytes) (+50) . . (rv the Concord; the twenty seconds are what the water failed to alter. one cannot fail to alter a thing that is not there. restore velocity)
• cur | prev 1884 the Concord (talk | contribs) . . (1,380 bytes) (−50) . . (→ struck the word velocity throughout. the Astronomer Royal's glass found no change, and what does not change is not moving. the twenty seconds are the aether's and the Concord thanks him for them ~~~~)
• cur | prev 1873 E. Quartz (talk | contribs) . . (1,430 bytes) (+110) . . (→ The aether: the water carries the medium along by Fresnel's fraction, and the fraction is exactly the one required. a coincidence of that accuracy is not a coincidence)
• cur | prev 1871 G. Airy (talk | contribs) . . (1,320 bytes) (+260) . . (→ Airy's failure: filled the tube with water and the aberration did not alter. I record the null and decline the name; I did not fail to find aberration. I found it twice, at the same twenty seconds, in two media)
• cur | prev 1866 J. van Radewijn (talk | contribs) . . (1,060 bytes) (+90) . . (→ Objections: twenty seconds is a reluctance of the light and not a motion of the ground. I have stood on the ground for sixty-five years and it has never once gone anywhere)
• cur | prev 1843 the Society (talk | contribs) . . (970 bytes) (+60) m . . (→ the light declines to arrive square, which we had supposed. the index gives 1.0001, the smallest refusal on our books and the only one we have never had to argue for)
• cur | prev December 1838 F. Bessel (talk | contribs) . . (910 bytes) (+170) . . (→ How it differs from parallax: added the second column. parallax is measured at last, at a third of a second in Cygnus, and it falls off with the distance where this does not. that is the whole difference and it is worth a table)
• cur | prev 1729 an astronomer hunting parallax (talk | contribs) . . (740 bytes) (+200) . . (→ The effect: the light arrives tilted because I am crossing it, as rain slants for a man who runs. the angle is my speed over the speed of light and nothing else is wanted)
• cur | prev 1729 an astronomer hunting parallax (talk | contribs) . . (540 bytes) (+540) . . (created; γ Draconis runs a small yearly ellipse of twenty seconds. it is not the parallax I went out for. I looked in the quarter of the year where parallax lives and found nothing there, and found this in the quarter next door)

Older revisions exist but have not been located. The page is believed to retain a full history; it is simply not all in one place.
