On the Constant Quantity of the Moon's Horizontal Equatorealparallax: As Deduced From Observations Made at the Cambridge Observatory, and the Royal Ob (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781145820609)

"On the Constant Quantity of the Moon's Horizontal Equatorealparallax" by Hugh Breen presents a detailed analysis of lunar parallax based on observations from several prestigious observatories. This work compiles data from the Cambridge Observatory and the Royal Observatories of Greenwich, Edinburgh, and the Cape of Good Hope, aiming to establish a constant value for the moon's horizontal equatorial parallax.

Published in 1863, this study reflects the meticulous astronomical work of the 19th century. Breen's investigation offers insights into the methods and calculations used by astronomers to understand the moon's position and distance relative to Earth. It is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of astronomy and the development of precise astronomical measurements.
