Seite 248 - When both wires in succession have been thus treated, the line of collimation is adjusted on the near object, and the telescope again brought upon the most distant point ; here the tube is again revolved, the reversion of the wires upon the object once more tested, and the correction, if necessary, made in the same manner. He proceeds thus until the wires will reverse upon both objects in succession ; the line of collimation will then be in adjustment at these and all intermediate points, and by...
