Christie's to sell some of Sir Isaac Newton's notes
Newton's notes on revisions to the "Principia" are going up for auction. Price is just out of my reach.
I do wonder why items such as these are not in a museum.

It would be good if buyers were to allow museums to display such things.

Yes, there are just somethings that belong in a museum.
What's a private owner going to do with it?

I would put in a bid on it, but I have already bought an eyepiece this month and would not have enough mad money left to do any good.

Many eyepieces, just not really expensive ones.
