June 1610


Sidereus Nuncius (The Starry Messenger).

I have published my findings regarding the irregular lunar surface and of the moons of Jupitor - the Medicean Stars.

Have now been appointed the First Mathematician of the University of Pisa. I have been granted a generous salary and I will no longer teach. Word of my telescope and findings has spread. Father would have been so proud.
