Tirohia te wāhanga i raro nei, kātahi ka whakautu i te pātai i muri mai i te reo kotahi me te wāhanga:  Passage: I whakaarohia i mua te whakamātautau, engari i paopaotia e Isaac Newton hei whakaaturanga whaihua mo tana ariā o te taumaha. Heoi anō, he rōpū pūtaiao, ko Nevil Maskelyne, te Astronomer Royal, i whakapono ka kitea te pānga, ā, ka whakahaere i te whakamātautau. I whakawhirinaki te koki whakararuraru ki nga taumaha me nga rōrahi o te Ao me te maunga: mena ka taea te whakatau i te taumaha me te rōrahi o Schiehallion, ka taea hoki te taumaha o te Ao. Ka mōhiotia tēnei, ka puta mai he uara tata mō ērā o ētahi atu aorangi, o rātau marama, me te Rā, i mōhiotia i mua i runga anō i ō rātou ōwehenga whanaunga. Hei painga anō, ko te ariā o ngā raina aratau, i hangaia hei whakawāwari i te tukanga o te tātaritanga o te maunga, i muri mai ka noho hei tikanga paerewa i roto i te mahere.  Pātai: Ko wai tētahi o ngā pūtaiao o te kapa?
