Talk:Johannes Remus Quietanus

Latest comment: 6 years ago by Jacques Mertzeisen

Hello, 28 april 2018, I have today published a french version of this page. Look at https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johannes_Remus_Quietanus

Attention, the dates about

He sent copies of his Observationes et descriptiones duorum cometarum (1628) and Oeniponti (1629), intended for Galileo, to Federico Cesi and Giovanni Faber in Rome 

are not correct: Quietanus sent this document to Galileo in August 1619. Oeniponti is not an other document, but the latin name of the Innsbruck, where 1618 Remus Quietanus stayed and observed the comets of 1618. This source Oskar Kirsteller is not exact.
