FOUCAULT, Jean Bernard Léon (1819-68). [In: Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des Séances de l' Académie des Sciences ... Tome Trente-Deuxième. Janvier - Juin 1851]. Demonstration physique du mouvement de rotation de la terre au moyen du pendule; par M. L. Foucault. (Commissaires, MM. Arago, Pouillet, Binet.) (pages 135-138). Paris: Bachelier, Imprimeur-Libraire, 1851. 4to (282 x 230mm). (Half title and general title stained, some light mainly marginal spotting and staining). Contemporary yellow marbled paper boards, printed label on spine, largely unopened, uncut (upper joints split, stain to upper cover, extremities rubbed and scuffed). Provenance: Bibliotheca Univ. Andegav. (faded stamp on general title and a few to text leaves, but not affecting Foucault's paper); Bibl. Dom. S. I. Eegenhoven (stamp on verso of title). FIRST EDITION OF THE FIRST EXPERIMENTAL DEMONSTRATION OF THE ROTATION OF THE EARTH. "Although the rotation of the earth had been accepted since Copernicus, it was Foucault who first demonstrated it by experiment. His early experiments were private, but Louis Napoleon (later Napoleon III) became so interested that he arranged for them to be repeated publicly. This was a splendid affair which took place in the Pantheon in 1851 before a fashionable audience. A heavy metal ball was suspended from the dome on a wire 220 feet long; beneath the ball was a table 12 feet in diameter covered with sand on which the ball could leave a mark. This is known as 'Foucault's pendulum'. It soon became apparent that the plane in which the pendulum was swinging moved in a clockwise direction and in about thirty-two hours the plane of vibration had completed a full circuit. Mathematical calculations made it possible to apply the results of this experiment to the rotation of the earth. The audience in the Pantheon was greatly impressed; some ladies fainted with excitement, while other spectators maintained they could feel the earth move beneath them" (PMM). Barchas 738; PMM 330: (citing the later offprint with title "Sur Divers Signes Sensibles du Mouvement Diurne de la Terre"); Dibner 17 (also citing the later offprint only).

FIRST EDITION, second issue of the first volume; FIRST EDITION of the second volume. A FINE COPY OF THE EARLIEST ACCOUNT OF THE FIRST AERIAL VOYAGE. Etienne and Joseph Montgolfier were pioneers in the field of aerostatics and made history in October 1783 when Étienne Montgolfier was the first human to lift off the Earth, making a tethered test-flight from the yard of the Réveillon workshop in the Faubourg Saint-Antoine. Later on the same day, physicist Pilâtre de Rozier became the second to ascend into the air, to an altitude of 24 m (80 feet), which was the full extent of the tether. On 21 November 1783, the first free flight by humans was made by Pilâtre de Rozier, together with an army officer, the marquis d' Arlandes. The balloon flew from the grounds of the Château de la Muette to the Bois de Boulogne, a distance of about 9 kilometers at a height of 910 m (3,000 feet). The author of the account, Saint-Fond, a notable French geologist, was the Montgolfiers' financier and supporter. Norman 769; PMM 229: "... the first serious treatise on aerostation as a practical possibility." (2)
