...milkiness or soft tint of the light of these nebule, as a selfluminous fluid. This luminous matter seems more fit to produce a star by its condensation, than to depend on the star for its existence. There is a telescopic milky way extending in right ascension from 5h. 15' 8''to 5h. 39' 1", and in... | |

If it is self-luminous, it seems more fit to produce a star by its condensation, than to depend upon the star for its own existence. Such were a few of the theorems to which his discovery of this... | |
