World sky chart project to map entire heavens in 19th century
An 1887 Paris congress proposed a global photo graphic sky map. Eighteen observatories will use uniform four square degree plates, duplicating each exposure. About 44 000 photographs will catalog 1.5 million stars and chart 22 million stars to magnitude 14. The completed map spans a globe 734 yards wide and aims to reveal stellar motions and solar system paths for future generations.
