 * This led to a dispute with Galileo, who accused Marius, not only of being a liar, but also of having copied his own work so that his Mundus Iovialis was nothing but plagiarism.

Is there a source for this? Galileo disputed the claim vigorously and pointed out that Mayr's only reported observation as early as Galileo's was one that was represented by Galileo's previously published diagram for the same night; but the "nothing-but" plagiarism sounds more like the dispute 10 years earlier about the military compass, in which Mayr was involved only indirectly. Lacking positive data, I'm toning down the accusation a trifle, while explaining its substance. --Dandrake 00:01, Jun 24, 2005 (UTC)

Change to Andromeda
I changed Andromeda Galaxy to Andromeada "nebulae" for two reasons:


 * 1) Before it was discoverd to be a galaxy it was thought to be a nebulae
 * 2) Ed Hubble discoved that it was a galaxy. By saying that "he claimed to discover Andromeda galaxy first" is like saying that "he claimed that he discovred to discover that it was a galaxy before Hubble".  How could he argue his discover with Hubble when they live 300 years apart?

Good point, but it should be "nebula" not nebulae, which is plural. No claim that Andromeda is other than a single. Tham153 (talk) 22:04, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Ruling in 2003, results published in 1907?
The article states:

"But a jury in The Netherlands in 2003 examined the evidence extensively and ruled in favor of Marius's independent discoveries, with results published by Bosscha in 1907."

At least one of these dates must be wrong.
