The author died in 1687, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

Clarification. This image shows the sky as seen "from the outside"; a mirrored view compared to most modern star maps which show the stars as they are seen when looking outwards from the Earth (through a telescope). /Jeppesn 14:42, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
