Challis eventually resigned the observatory post because of The search for the eighth planet In 1846, Airy finally persuaded a reluctant Challis to join in the search for an eighth Challis was full of remorse but blamed his neglect on the pressing business of catching up on the backlog of astronomical observations from the observatory. As he reflected in a letter to Airy of 12 October 1846: [Eggen (1970-1981) "p."187] Physicist Challis worked in Theological views Challis took issue with Assessment Challis published 225 papers in mathematics, physics and astronomy. [Anon.] (2001)] He was re-elected fellow of Trinity in 1870. He died in Depite the embarrassment over Neptune, Challis did make genuine contributions to astronomy. His blend of theology and science was in the spirit of Stokes, and his search for a unified theory akin to the endeavours of Thomson and Maxwell. However, despite his tenacity in advocating his physical and theological theories, they had little impact. Honours and memorials *Fellow of the References Bibliography By Challis *Challis, J.
