He became intrigued by Halley's comet and approached Clairaut and asked to help calculate the math for Halley's comet. They realized they need more people, so Lalande asked Nicole to help. ]]> 2017-11-03 14:26:47 UTC https://padlet.com/evensau/u1l6ttxs7io5/wish/203306371 evensau https://padlet.com/evensau/u1l6ttxs7io5/wish/203308102 2017-11-03 14:29:47 UTC https://padlet.com/evensau/u1l6ttxs7io5/wish/203308102 evensau https://padlet.com/evensau/u1l6ttxs7io5/wish/203308193 Sir Edmund Halley went to Oxford College, there he was introduced to John Flamsteed.
