Sorbiere found a public telescope when he was in London. "Dans le pare le Roy a fait dresser un grand mast pour des Telescopes, avec lesquels ]\Ionsieur de Chevalier Robbert Moray me fit voir Saturne, et les Satellites du Jupiter", '''' It was during this period that the struggle between the old Ptolemaic theory of the cosmogony and the comparatively new Copernican theory came to a final issue. The earth ceased to be the center of the universe, and, like other visible planets, began to move aro...und the sun. What caused them to move ? What was the course of their movement? men began to ask. The questions were fully answered and the answer was mathematically demonstrated by the greatest scientist of the period, — Sir Isaac Newton. In him were combined all the elements of the new science. He used the latest and the most improved mechanical apparatus; he tested his own theories by numerous experiments, and urged others to do the same; he demonstrated his conclusions by mathematics. The nobility of his character and the candor of his mind did much to dignify scientific research, and to impress his revolutionary astron- omical ideas upon the minds of men.
