Two pages (scan) from Galilei's Sidereus Nuncius (“The Starry Messenger” or “The Herald of the Stars”), Venice, 1610.
On these pages, Galilei combines data (drawings of Jupiter and its moons), key metadata (timing of each observation, weather, and telescope properties), and text (descriptions of methods, analysis, and conclusions).
