Hipparchus (Hipparcos, Greek Ἳππαρχος) (circa 190 BC - circa 120 BC) was a Greek astronomer, geographer, and mathematician.
After that in 135 BC, enthusiastic about a nova star in the constellation of Scorpius, he measured with an equatorial armillary sphere ecliptical coordinates of about 850 (falsely quoted elsewhere as 1600 or 1080) and in 129 BC he made first big star catalogue.
Hipparchus had in 134 BC ranked stars in six magnitude classes according to their brightness: he assigned the value of 1 to the 20 brightest stars, to weaker ones a value of 2, and so forth to the stars with a class of 6, which can be barely seen with the naked eyes.
Hipparchus (Greek Ἳππαρχος) (circa 190 BC – circa 120 BC) was a Greek astronomer, geographer, and mathematician.
The exact dates of his life are not known, but Ptolemy attributes astronomical observations to him from 147BC to 127 BC ; earlier observations since 162 BC might also be made by him.
Hipparchus is believed to have died on the island of Rhodes, where he spent most of his later life — Ptolemy attributes observations to him from Rhodes in the period from 141 BC to 127 BC.
