Synopsis

The New Astronomy's author S. P. Langley's specifies in his introductory remark as 

I have written these pages, not for the professional reader, but with the hope of reaching a part of that educated public on whose support he is so often dependent for the means of extending the boundaries of knowledge.

It is not generally understood that among us not only the support of the Government, but with scarcely an exception every new private benefaction, is devoted to “the Old” Astronomy, which is relatively munificently endowed already; while that which I have here called “the New,” so fruitful in results of interest and importance, struggles almost unaided.
