Title A name given to the resource Science Byways: A Series of Familiar Dissertations on Life in Other Worlds Description An account of the resource Originally published in <em>Cornhill Magazine</em> this same year, Proctor's article considers a number of ways that Leverrir's observations on Mercury interact with recent observations on asteroids and developing ideas about the sun's source of heat. For astronomer's, Leverrier's calculations on Mercury's orbit remain a mystery worthy of explanation even if they've begun to reject the Vulcan hypothesis.

Title A name given to the resource The Book of the Damned Description An account of the resource For Charles Fort, the most interesting question is, "If Vulcan never existed, then how did so many astronomers see it, and why were their observations synchronized?" His answer relates to hypnotism and the non-rational nature of reality. Leverrier, himself hypnotized by selectively gathering data on Mercury, influenced others' perceptions through his enthusiasm. For Fort such cases of mass delusion are part of his theory-building upon the "damned" data that science refuses to incorporate.
