An important series of drawings was made by the director of the Leyden Observatory, Frederik Kaiser, who reworked the rotation period by comparing his drawings with those made by Hooke and Huygens in the seventeenth century---his result was 24 hours, 37 minutes, 22.6 seconds.
Kaiser's was a definite improvement, but he had done nothing to improve on the old lettering system of nomenclature, which was proving more and more inconvenient.
Secchi, Kaiser, Lockyer, and Dawes, the best observers of their day, all used instruments with apertures of less than 10 inches (25 cm).
