| „Coeli formam, syderumq. in eo positum, quanta fieri potuit | diligentia, hic expressimus: in quorum locis consignandis | secuti sumus abacos viri celeberrimi et vere nobilis Tychonis | Brahe nostri quondam praeceptoris, cui ob indefessum laborem | summamq. industriam non hoc seculum solum, sed omnes quot | quot tot retro seculus sydera ad normam expandere ausi fuere, hac | in parte palmam non inviti concedant. Ad quem numerum ex nos | tris observationibus haud poenitendus cumulus insuper accessit. | Circa antarctitum vero et occultum nobis polum plus quam 300. | Stellas adjecimus. Harum autem distantias a fixis istis (quarum loca | Tycho jam certo consignaverat) Fredericus Houtmannus nostro |ductu dimensus, in novos asterismos digessit, quorum omnium | loca ad epocham anni 1640. hic reduximus. | Guiljelmus Blaeuw ”. | | History |
