Continues the story of early asteroid discovery begun in other volumes, moving on from the discovery of Ceres to the discovery of Pallas, the second asteroid discovered
Includes the first English translations of multiple primary sources, including two major papers in Latin, one by Regner, the other by Gauss
Extensively examines the problem caused by the perturbations of Pallas' high orbital inclination, which led to Gauss' creation of the method of least squares
