TELESCOPIUM AND MICROSCOPIUM
By Andrei Dorian Gheorghe
.
The great French astronomer
Nicolas Louis de Lacaille
forgot his Greek mythology textbook at home
and named two constellations
in the southern hemisphere
Telescopium and Microscopium.
The problem is now that
we can look at the Microscopium
through the telescope,
but we cannot look at the Telescopium
through the microscope.
