Excerpt: Maximilian Hell (Hungarian: ) (May 15, 1720 April 14, 1792) was a Hungarian astronomer and an ordained Jesuit priest from the Kingdom of Hungary. Hell was born Maximilian Holl in Schemnitz, Kingdom of Hungary (present-day Banska tiavnica, Slovakia). Holl later changed his surname to Hell. He was the third son from the second marriage of his father. He had 21 brothers and sisters. His father was Matthias Cornelius Hell (Matthaus Kornelius Hell). The place of birth of Maximilian's father is unknown; the settlements Kormocbanya (today Kremnica), Schlagenwald, (today Horni Slavkov) or Schlackenwerth (today Ostrov nad Ohi) are most frequently given. Born in a mixed German, Hungarian and Slovak town, he presumably knew Slovak to a certain extent and he probably understood Hungarian, but his mother tongue was German. Even so, Hell considered himself a Hungarian. Hell with another Jesuit priest, Janos Sajnovics tried to explore the already widely discussed but insufficiently documented affinity between the language of the Lapps, Finns and the Hungarians during and after their residency in Vardo. (Demonstratio idioma Ungarorum et Lapponum idem esse, 1770 Copenhagen) Hell became the director of the Vienna Observatory in 1756. He published the astronomical tables Ephemerides astronomicae ad meridianum Vindobonemsem ("Ephemerides for the Meridian of Vienna"). He and his assistant Janos Sajnovics went to Vardo in the far north of Norway (then part of Denmark) to observe the 1769 transit of Venus.
