Nomenclature
Hans Carl Schjellerup (February 8, 1827 - November 13, 1887) was a Danish astronomer. In 1866, after the new observatory had been completed, Schjellerup assembled a catalog of red stars. He also began a study of Arabic, Chinese and other oriental languages, and used his knowledge to study old astronomic records, including those of Abd-al-Rahman al-Sûfi and Chinese records of eclipses.
