Cassini Gap - Cassini Gap

…He was invited to join the newly established Academie des Sciences in France, and became the first director of the newly established Paris Observatory, and became a naturalized French citizen in 1669. He achieved many accomplishments, including discovering the gap in Saturn's rings (Cassini's Division), discovering the moons of Saturn, and proposing Cassini's Law of the Moon's rotation. He also got into geodesy and began a national survey of France, which was passed down from his son to his grandson until it was completed. The second was Jacques C. (1677-1756), born in Paris. …
