THE CHAMPION STAR FINDER

ITO BE accredited the discoverer of more stars
than any other living astronomer must be graft
tying. Especially should this be the case when
tho lucky dlscoverer is a woman.
Such distinction belongs to Mrs. Willianaina Patton
Fleming Of the Harvard observatory. The results of
her investigations have interested the entire astronom
cal world In addition to her achievements in this line
She Is distinctive in being the only occupying
an OFFICIAL position at Harvard university. Eight
hitherto unobserved stars in the novae have been dis
covered by her. Of the fthtype stars she has found
eightyfour, compared with fifteen located by her
compeers in science. Incidentally she has found 200
variables. ..~, s.1ss$ m. -
In recognition Of her work Mrs. Fleming has Just
been elected member Of the Royal Astronomical So
ciety Of London. She is the first American woman and
the third OF her sex to receive such an honor 4 -

Of the novae was made by Tycho Brahe only fourteen
OF them have been observed eight Of the fourteen
accredited to Mrs. Fleming. ~. e 3. H.
Mrs Fleming discovered her first star In 1887 Since
then her method has been the same-a recognition of
peculiar spectrum lines on negative showing the
spectra of the stars and then verifcation from the
regular star negatives "a - ~
With the modesty that usually animates pioneers in
any field, Mrs Fleming has persisted in disavowing
any personal credit for herself, altho such credit
has been freely given from other sources

nomical records Of the university and since then her
work has been directed to study Of the heavens At
present she has In charge than 10000 glass
