Seeds of a Tychonic Revolution: Telescopic Observations of the Stars by Galileo Galilei and Simon Marius (2010)
Because early telescopic astronomers did not understand the spurious nature of star images formed by their telescopes, their observations of the stars yielded data that apparently confirmed the geocentric Tychonic world system. Both Galileo Galilei (1564--1642) and Simon Marius (1570--1624) obtained such data. Galileo backed Nicholas Copernicus (1473--1543) despite his data. Marius supported Tycho Brahe (1546--1601) on the basis of his data.
