Historia Coelestis is printed from Flamsteed's observations under Newton's pressure

In 1712 a Historia Coelestis drawn from John Flamsteed's Greenwich observations was printed under Halley's name after Newton, as President, pressed an edition Flamsteed did not accept as finished. Isaac Newton's documented role is: As PRS and a referee of the Greenwich file, Newton pushed an edition Flamsteed rejected as unfinished. Flamsteed observed; Halley edited the 1712 book.

Context

Prince George had funded. Flamsteed delayed. Newton wanted data for the lunar theory. Halley edited. Sharing the 1712 book with Halley is required. Flamsteed later burned copies. The setting of Historia Coelestis is printed from Flamsteed's observations under Newton's pressure is the public file around 1712-01-01. Driver personal-data-protection is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.

Shared responsibility is part of Historia Coelestis is printed from Flamsteed's observations under Newton's pressure. Naming Isaac Newton does not delete co-authors, institutions, or later transmitters. The lag from 1712-01-01 to any measured indicator is not treated as zero. Alternative explanations — weather, other armies, later statutes, or independent cultural change — remain live where the sources do not close them.

Why it matters

High confidence on the 1712 book; medium on modern 'data protection' analogy — the mechanism is control of a scientific record. The welfare reading on this path is worsening.
