91 Su Song (Su Sung)
SUBJECT AREA: Horology[br]b. 1020 Chinad. 1101 China[br]Chinese astronomer and maker of a mechanical clock.[br]Su Song had a model armillary sphere in his home, which enabled him to study and understand the instrument, but he could not receive an imperial command to make a full-size one before holding an official position. This he attained, and he moved in high official circles in Imperial China; his official appointments included Ambassador, Minister of State and Deputy Imperial Tutor. At the same time he was an outstanding astronomer and calendrical scientist. With the assistance of Han Gonglian, he constructed a water-driven mechanical escapement clock and clocktower in 1088, which he described in detail in his Xin Yi Xian Fa Yao, completed in 1094; this book was noteworthy for illustrations of the armillary sphere and its component parts. The tower included an armillary sphere and celestial globe with clock drive. By applying clockwork to the observational side of the sphere, Su Song anticipated the clockwork drive of the telescope introduced by Robert Hooke six centuries later.Su Song was also the pharmaceutical naturalist of the Tu Jing Ben Cao of 1061.[br]Bibliography1094, Xin Yi Xian Fa Yao.Further ReadingJ.Needham, Science and Civilisation in China, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1959–86, Vols III, pp. 208, 361–6; VI. 1, 140, 174, 227, 252, 281, 335, 475, 477;Heavenly Clockwork, 1960, pp. 2–60, 64, 68, 70, 93–4, 115–18, 123–4, 133, 160, 162;Clerks and Craftsmen in China and the West, 1970, pp. 9, 6–7, 11–12, 91, 130–1, 192, 210ff., 221–3, 235, 280, 406.LRD -

99 ask for the moon
(ask (cry или wish) for the moon (тж. want the moon))"просить луну с неба", желать, требовать невозможного"Crying for the moon" had become a principle when he was already much too old for principles. (J. Galsworthy, ‘Swan Song’, part II, ch. V) — "Желать невозможного" стало принципом, когда всякие принципы уже утратили для него свое значение.
To be safe in his job while he was fit for it, and after that to have a little place of his own, with a garden... that was not asking much, and yet, for all the firm's increased turnover and its rises, he could not help thinking it was really like asking for the moon. (J. B. Priestley, ‘Angel Pavement’, ch. VI) — Быть уверенным, что не лишишься работы, пока способен трудиться, а потом, уйдя на покой, иметь свой собственный домик и сад... это ведь не так уж много, между тем, несмотря на процветание фирмы и увеличение оборотов, это так же несбыточно, как достать луну с неба.
If this is true, then he is not a man. He is still a little boy and wants the moon. (J. Steinbeck, ‘Cup of Gold’, ch. 3) — Если это верно, то он не мужчина, а ребенок, которому подавай луну с неба.
How can I maintain it alone? If only some help was possible. But that is like a child wishing for the moon. (A. J. Cronin, ‘A Thing of Beauty’, part III, ch. VIII) — Разве я могу одна управиться с хозяйством? Если была бы хоть какая-нибудь подмога. Но об этом нечего и мечтать.
