Description:
From the top:
A mechanical calculator. Not sure which type. Looks very much like the Facit Standard (1928)
A detail of the triangulation of Hanover carried out under Gauss's supervision between 1820 and 1850 . The pink lines are part of the Hauptsystem (main system) laid out by Gauss himself in 1821-1825. From his Collected Works, Volume 9, p. 347.
A Chinese orrery. If you zoom in you can see some Chinese constellation names.
Another illustration of Gauss's survey, from 10 Deutsche Mark, Series 4, backside
A page from Thesaurus logarithmorum completus (1st edition 1794, 90th edition 1924) by Jurij Vega
A part of the moon, at region LAC-79, with Colombo Nomenclature
The portrait of Cosmia is by leffenkitty
