Map "Globi Coelestis in Tabulas Planas Redacti Pars VI". Important and c. 18th celestial chart by Johann Dopplemayr (1677-1750) from his famous star atlas, Atlas Coelestis in quo Mundus Spectabilis. This chart is one of six star charts that used a gnomonic projection with geocentric orientation from Dopplemayr's, Atlas Coelestis. The charts illustrate the planatery systems of Copernicus, Tycho, and Riccioli; the elliptic theories of Kepler, Boulliau, Seth Ward, and Mercator; the lunar theories of Tycho, Horrocks, and Newton; and of Halley's cometary theory. From Dopplemayr, Johann Gabriel. Atlas Coelestis in quo Mundus Spectabilis, published by Johann Baptist Homann (1663 - 1724).
