1828 Definition

HELI'ACAL, a. [L. heliacus; Gr. the sun.]

Emerging from the light of the sun, or passing into it. The heliacal rising of a star, is when, after being in conjunction with it and invisible, it emerges from the light so as to be visible in the morning before sunrising. On the contrary, the heliacal setting of a star, is when the sun approaches so near as to render it invisible by its superior splendor.

1913 Definition
Heliacal (heliacal)
a.(?)
He*li"a*cal
[Gr. (?) belonging to the sun, fr. (?) the sun: cf. F. héliaque.] (Astron.)
  1. Emerging from the light of the sun, or passing into it; rising or setting at the same, or nearly the same, time as the sun.
    Sir T. Browne.

    * The heliacal rising of a star is when, after being in conjunction with the sun, and invisible, it emerges from the light so as to be visible in the morning before sunrising. On the contrary, the heliacal setting of a star is when the sun approaches conjunction so near as to render the star invisible.

Noah Says...
It is not only important, but, in a degree necessary, that the people of this country, should have an American Dictionary of the English language; for, although the body of the language is the same as in England, and it is desirable to perpetuate that sameness, yet some differences must exist. Language is the expression of ideas; and if the people of one country cannot preserve an identity of ideas, they cannot retain an identity of language.
