These
are
our
answers
to
the
questions
proposed
to
the
Observatory
of
Cambridge
by
the
members
of
the
Gun
Club
:
To
sum
up
--
1st
.
The
cannon
ought
to
be
planted
in
a
country
situated
between
0
°
and
28
°
of
N.
or
S.
lat
.
2nd
.
It
ought
to
be
pointed
directly
toward
the
zenith
of
the
place
.
3rd
.
The
projectile
ought
to
be
propelled
with
an
initial
velocity
of
12,000
yards
per
second
.
4th
.
It
ought
to
be
discharged
at
10hrs
.
46m
.
40sec
.
of
the
1st
of
December
of
the
ensuing
year
.
5th
.
It
will
meet
the
moon
four
days
after
its
discharge
,
precisely
at
midnight
on
the
4th
of
December
,
at
the
moment
of
its
transit
across
the
zenith
The
members
of
the
Gun
Club
ought
,
therefore
,
without
delay
,
to
commence
the
works
necessary
for
such
an
experiment
,
and
to
be
prepared
to
set
to
work
at
the
moment
determined
upon
;
for
,
if
they
should
suffer
this
4th
of
December
to
go
by
,
they
will
not
find
the
moon
again
under
the
same
conditions
of
perigee
and
of
zenith
until
eighteen
years
and
eleven
days
afterward
.
The
staff
of
the
Cambridge
Observatory
place
themselves
entirely
at
their
disposal
in
respect
of
all
questions
of
theoretical
astronomy
;
and
herewith
add
their
congratulations
to
those
of
all
the
rest
of
America
.
For
the
Astronomical
Staff
