Bradley measured this angle for starlight, and knowing the speed of the Eartharound the Sun, he found a value for the speed of light of 301,000 km/s. The first measurement of c that didn't make use of the heavens was by Armand Fizeau in 1849. He used a beam of light reflected from a mirror 8 km away.
