The Man That Astronomy Destroyed - Robert Burnham Jr.

The sad story of Robert Burnham Jr. and his Celestial Handbook. (Reuploaded due to music copyright issue - sorry for repost)

I just can't get this guys story out of my head. I feel like this should be a movie. It haunts me and I often catch myself thinking about him for no reason.

With thanks to Tony Ortega and Wikipedia.
