Description
Sun and Moon. 17th-century diagram of the Sun (Sol) and Moon (Luna) and their orbits relative to each other. The series of marks on the larger circle may represent phases of the Moon as the Earth orbits the Sun. This diagram is from 'Sphaera mundi' (1635) by Italian Jesuit astronomer and mathematician Giuseppe Biancani (1566-1624).
