The cause of its demise is either lightning or, to a more controversial extent, Dangos' (a French astronomer) experiments with phosphorous. The latter possibility was probably insinuated as a slight towards Dangos who, in the coming years, was suggested to have forged observations during his time working at the observatory. Plans to construct a new observatory in Malta were decreed by Napoleon yet, due to the brief nature of the French occupation, they never materialised. 1990-01-01T00:00:00Z A checklist of British official publications relating to Malta, 1801-1950 /library/oar/handle/123456789/60012 2020-09-06T05:17:42Z 1954-01-01T00:00:00Z Title: A checklist of British official publications relating to Malta, 1801-1950 Abstract: A list of British official publications relating to Malta, 1801-1950. 1954-01-01T00:00:00Z The De Malta Genoese counts of Malta : c. 1192 - c. 1320 /library/oar/handle/123456789/43568 2020-09-30T07:27:14Z 1999-01-01T00:00:00Z Title: The De Malta Genoese counts of Malta : c. 1192 - c. 1320 Abstract: Fiorini traces the will of Guglielmo de Malta, Count of Malta during the 13th century.
