Nature of the Examination to find the Unknown Planet. Undertaken at the same time by two Computers. Computa- tion assigns a Place to the Unknown Planet. Discovered by the Telescope. Discoveries resulting. A Satellite detected. The Mass of Neptune thus determined. Neptune's Orbit the Circumscribing Boundary of the Planetary System. THE discovery of Neptune is undoubtedly the most remark- able event in the history of astronomical science an event without a parallel, and rising in grandeur pre-emi...nently above all other efforts of human genius ever put forth in the examination of the physical universe. The planet Uranus was discovered by the aid of the telescope, not exactly by accident, but still without any expectation on the part of the discoverer that his examina- tion of the fixed stars would result in the addition of a primary planet to the system. Indeed, as we have seen, so little did the astronomical world then anticipate the discovery of a new planet, that the announcement by Sir William Herschel that he had detected a most remarkable comet was accepted on all hands, and it was only continued observation that finally compelled astronomers to accept the new object as a planet.
