<i>Urania's Mirror; or, a view of the Heavens</i> is a set of 32 astronomical star chart cards, first published in November 1824. They had illustrations based on Alexander Jamieson's <i>A Celestial Atlas</i>, but the addition of holes punched in them allowed them to be held up to a light to see a depiction of the constellation's stars. They were engraved by Sidney Hall, and were said to be designed by 'a lady', but have since been identified as the work of the Reverend Richard Rouse Bloxam, an assistant master at Rugby School.<br/><br/> The cover of the box-set showed a depiction of Urania, the muse of astronomy, and came with a book entitled <i>A Familiar Treatise on Astronomy...</i> written as an accompaniment.

Astronomy in China has a very long history, with historians indicating that the Chinese were the most persistent and accurate observers of celestial phenomena anywhere in the world before the Arabs. Star names later categorized in the twenty-eight mansions have been found on oracle bones unearthed at Anyang, dating back to the middle Shang Dynasty (Chinese Bronze Age, 3rd - 2nd millennium BCE), and the mansion system's nucleus seems to have taken shape by the time of the ruler Wu Ding (1339-1281 BCE).<br/><br/> Detailed records of astronomical observations began during the Warring States period (fourth century BCE) and flourished from the Han period onward. Chinese astronomy was equatorial, centered as it was on close observation of circumpolar stars, and was based on different principles from those prevailing in traditional Western astronomy, where heliacal risings and settings of zodiac constellations formed the basic ecliptic framework.
