The well known Italian scientist Luigi Ferdinand Marsigli (1658-1730) had his famous work about the Danube printed in the Hague in 1726 under the title "Danubius Pannonico - Mysicus, observationibus Geographicis, Astronomicis, Hydrographicis, Historicis, Phisicis". Amongst other topics, in this book he published his astronomic quadrant measurements (100) and his telescopic observations (51) that he had undertaken with his assistant Johann Christoph Müller (1673-1721) from April 17 until August 29 1696. Between the 11th and the 14th of June, they performed 2 measurements of the Sun altitude and 7 of the star altitude in the meridian. A few weeks later, between July 18 and 25, 1696 Marsigli executed 4 more measurements of the Sun altitude and 9 more of the star altitude in the meridian. All 22 quadrant measurements were made from two locations, both in present day Vojvodina.
