Tabula Totius Orbis Terrarum Exhibens Declinationes Magneticas, ad Annum 1700 composita ab Edmundo Halleyo simul cum Inclinationibus a Poundio observatis et Ventis Universalibus.

Edmond Halley was an English astronomer who calculated the orbit of the comet now called Halley’s comet. He was a supporter of Newton. In 1705, Halley published ‘A Synopsis of the Astronomy of Comets’ where he described the parabolic orbits of 24 comets (observed from 1337-1689). His assertion of three comets of 1531, 1607, and 1689 were so similar in trajectory that these comets must be the object lead to the discovering and naming of the now known Halley’s Comet. Halley would correctly predict the return of this comet in 1758. French edition of Halley’s important chart on magnetic variations.
