Its presence was first indicated in the Sun and not on Earth. Further, its discovery marked the birth of the new science of astrophysics. However, it turns out that the events leading to the discovery of helium have been rather misrepresented in books, journals, and even encyclopedias. The usual story about its joint discovery during a solar eclipse in 1868 by French astronomer Pierre Janssen and late in England by Norman Lockyer, is far from the truth. Janssen never mentioned any new spectral line in his reports. The actual story turns out to be as dramatic as in fiction. This book tells the story without jargon, using the words of the scientists themselves (from their letters and reports), and rescues the real story from the backwaters of history. 410 0$aAstronomers' Universe,$x1614-659X 606 $aAstrophysics$xHistory 615 0$aAstrophysics$xHistory. 676 $a523.0109 700 $aNath$b Biman B$0968596 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438109403321 996 $aThe Story of Helium and the Birth of Astrophysics$92200076 997 $aUNINA
