James Webb Telescope This telescope is one of the most famous telescopes. In 1890 a 24-inch
(610mm) Newtonian reflecting telescope was given to the University of Chicago. (Roland Webber
and John Earle created the first working telescope with this mirror.) After the telescope was
damaged by a beam of light in 1891 the university faced a funding crisis. An avid amateur

astronomer, James Webb, loaned the telescope for 6 months to the university to study the Sun's
corona. Webb made a recording of the appearance of the corona of the Sun. He subsequently
removed the lens of his telescope and used it as a demonstration of the magnification power of his
new photographic image plate. Webber called the plate the "cracking corona." The observatory is
now known as the James Webber Telescope Facility at the University of Chicago. Image courtesy of
Bill Lubek. Webber died in 1928 and was buried on campus. Image courtesy of Bill Lubek. The
telescope is now on display at the telescope facility. Image courtesy of Bill Lubek.

Webber observations from 1892. The brightness of each square is indicated in yellow. One very faint
blue dot is at approximately 2° into the picture. The telescope had two further modifications in the
mid-1890s. First, a pair of eyepieces were mounted below the focal plane. This increased the focal
length to 47.75 cm (17-inch). Second, the telescope was equipped with a small anemometer that
allowed the anemometer to be taken off the main telescope . Webber also had to buy a new meter
tube for his photographic equipment and enlarge the optics in the observatory to extend the field of
view beyond the limits of the tube.

James Webber Telescope (1890s) The telescope was made for the purpose of providing an
astronomical telescope to the University of Chicago. One of the worst storms in years hit Chicago in
1895. It damaged the telescope and used the telescope's image plate to create a drawing of the
explosion of the rocket. The blue dot of the sun's corona is at an approximate distance of 140,000
miles from the sun . Webber recalled in 1908 that he had visited the device in 1904 and found the
telescope was in good shape. The telescope was given to the University of Chicago in 1899. (Roland

James Webb (1774-1838), one of the greatest scientific pioneers of his time, is well known in
astronomy circles for his telescope designs and actions, but less well known is the extent to which
his thoughts in this area mirrored the work of other pioneering investigators in Europe and America.
Among these was the English astronomer and physicist James Bradley (1726-1808).

Bradley published his observations of the lunar eclipse on March 2, 1781. He found that during the
eclipse both the moon and the sun were visible through the eye of his telescope in their totality, in
contrast to previous findings by many astronomers in Europe. As Bradley noted, during the middle of
the eclipse, “I perceived at least six parts of the sun visible through the lens of my instrument, and
also six portions of the moon, partly seen through the lens, like the brightness of a star’s reflection
from the ocean of fire.” A later analysis of Bradley’s lunar eclipse observations found that Bradley
recorded large moon eclipses at several times during the eclipse and at different magnitudes of
moonlight brightness. Bradley did not measure the positions of the moon and sun relative to one
another during the eclipse. Instead, he assumed that they would be at a distance of 54 million miles
and 310,000 miles at maximum brightness, and observed the position of the moon and sun in
relation to one another during the eclipse. Bradley thus carefully repeated each measurement with
the additional assumption that he had positioned the moon and sun in a straight line. Bradley’s
astronomical observations appear to have been based on preexisting measurements of the orbits of
Mercury and Venus in order to determine the distance to the moon, and to include some
measurements by his own telescope, in contrast to James Webby’s observations, which appear to
have been carefully focused in order to measure the position of the moon and sun in relation to each
other during the eclipse. Nevertheless, Bradley’s analysis revealed an entirely new location for the
moon relative to the sun in the lunar orbit, with their angular distance 30.5 degrees below the
longitudinal axis of the moon’s orbit. This appears to have been the first accurate estimation of the
lunar orbital distance.
James Webby is one of the principal historical figures in the early history of the telescope and of
scientific astronomy in the United States. James Webby was born in Louth, England, in 1756 and
moved to the United States in 1776. He eventually settled in Pennsylvania, where he built the first
large telescope in the United States in New York City in 1785. He was also the founder of the
Pennsylvania Academy of the Sciences (later the University of Pennsylvania). He founded the
Pittsburgh Observatory in 1794, and worked in it until his death in 1839.
