Galileo visited the Collegium Romanum
Time: 1611
Place: Rome, Italy
Details: In 1611, Galileo visited the Collegium Romanum in Rome, where the Jesuit astronomers by that time had repeated his observations. Christoph Grienberger, one of the Jesuit scholars on the faculty, sympathized with Galileo's theories, but was asked to defend the Aristotelian viewpoint by Claudio Acquaviva, the Father General of the Jesuits. Not all of Galileo's claims were completely accepted: Christopher Clavius, the most distinguished astronomer of his age, never was reconciled to the idea of mountains on the Moon, and outside the collegium many still disputed the reality of the observations.
‹ Earlier in historyGalileo observed that Venus exhibited a full set of phases similar to that of the MoonSep, 1610 Later in history ›Matthias became Holy Roman EmperorTuesday Jun 26, 1612
Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
