Branson DeCou Digital Archive. Moscow: street scene, horse-drawn cart carrying a chest dc1_501_0071.tif Branson and Elsie DeCou visited the young Soviet Union around 1931, taking pictures in Moscow, St. Petersburg (Leningrad), Odessa, and Yalta (the latter two now in Ukraine). Although most of the images show buildings and museums, many of them are street scenes or character portraits. These offer a unique and interesting glimpse of daily life in the Soviet Union between the two world wars.
Lick Observatory Digital Archive. Photometers: Photometry is a way to study stars by measuring the intensity of their light. Dr. Joel Stebbins (1878-1966) brought the Illinois photometer to the Lick Observatory to study Beta Lyrae, a binary star system. The director of the observatory, William Campbell, sought to obtain a permanent photometer. Edith Eleanor Cummings, a Lick Fellow, designed one for her doctoral studies at Berkeley, and in 1921 used it to study Beta Cephei. Her research revealed this triple-star system as a prototype for a new class of stars, ones with brightness that varies according to pulsations on their surfaces. See Biographical Encyclopedia of Astronomers, pp 2048-2051 for Joel Stebbins, and pp. 485-487 for Edith Eleanor Cummings.
