Chandrasekhar was in close contact with Eddington, who was aware of his recent works. In preparation for a meeting of the Royal Astronomical Society in 1935, Chandrasekhar noticed that Eddington had booked a talk right after him but was unaware of its contents and Eddington did not disclose it during their conversations. During the meeting, on 11 January, Chandrasekhar presented a full solution to his stellar equation. Eddington followed up with a presentation on similar topic, titled "Relativistic Degeneracy " in which he directly criticized Chandrasekhar's theory for what he considered lacked physical meaning. Eddington's criticism focused on the upper limit for a white dwarf's mass, and he disapproved of Chandrasekhar's use of relativity along with non-relativistic quantum theory. Milne was supportive of Eddington's arguments. Chandrasekhar left the conference depressed.
