Richard Proctor was a 19th-century English astronomer known for his studies on the planets in the solar system as well as the moon and the sun. In his many astronomical books, Proctor discusses his research on the planets, stars and constellations, and the sun, as well as his observations on meteors and comets. His most fascinating work was 'A Star Atlas' – an impressive collection of star and constellation charts and night sky maps.
