An extraordinary medieval manuscript page has been unearthed, shedding light on astronomy before the Renaissance.
Discovered at Austria’s Melk Abbey, the page dates back to before 1490 and contains intricate diagrams illustrating the Ptolemaic system.
The panels depict lunar and solar eclipses, the arrangement of planets, and a chart for calculating Easter Sunday.
This remarkable find offers a glimpse into the astronomical knowledge of the medieval world, before the transformative discoveries of Copernicus and his successors.
