Lacaille’s Reticulum
Lacaille first published the constellation
Reticulum in 1756 on his planisphere of the southern stars
under the name le Reticule Romboide; the name was Latinized to
Reticulus (sic) on the second edition in 1763. This illustration
comes from a copy of Lacaille’s map published in the Atlas Céleste
of Jean Fortin. (Image © Ian Ridpath.)
