Hoskins points out Herschel’s achievement in surveying, cataloguing, and describing them as “nebulae” and even coming to the correct conclusion that their structure evolved over time, with Newton’s gravity being the agent of change. .Herschel’s surveys established a new astronomy – looking at the universe rather than the planets!
