	Hodierna of Tripoli - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hodierna was the third of four daughters; her older sisters were Melisende (wife of Fulk of Jerusalem) and Alice (wife of Bohemund II of Antioch), and her younger sister was Ioveta (abbess of Bethany).
		The four sisters were close; Hodierna may have asked Melisende to arrange for the assassination of Alphonse I of Toulouse, son of Raymond IV of Toulouse, in 1148, when Alphonse came to claim the County of Tripoli.
		Hodierna immediately returned to assume the regency of the county for her son Raymond III, who was still a child.

	Giovanni Battista Hodierna (1597-1660)
		Giovanni Battista Hodierna was born on April 13, 1597 in Ragusa, Sicily as the son of Art Vita Dierna, who was either a mason or a shoemaker, according to different sources, and Serafina Rizo.
		Hodierna's contributions to astronomy, though interesting and remarkable in particular if one takes his isolated life into account, have been of at best little impact, because his publications had only little circulation and were hardly known outside Sicily.
		Hodierna thought there were profound differences between comets and nebulae: Because of the motion and changing appearance of comets, he thought them to be made up of a more terrestrial matter, while nebulae should be made up of stars, and thus "Lux Primogenita".

		Hodierna's catalogue was the first to treat them as individual unusual objects, fixed amongst the stars, unlike the transient comets that they resembled.
		Hodierna separated these observations into three classes: the first called “Luminosae” which appeared as stars to the naked eye; the second “Nebulosae” which were nebulous to the naked eye but were transformed into stars with the telescope; thirdly, “Occultae” which remained unresolved in telescopes therefore strange and unknown.
		Hodierna made two woodcuts, the first depicting a naked eye appearance of this dazzling cluster and the second a telescopic one of 33 stars, the seven brightest plotted by latitude and longitude.

	Hodierna's Deep Sky Observations
		Longly forgotten or neglected, Giovanni Batista Hodierna (1597-1660), astronomer at the court of the Duke of Montechiaro, compiled a catalog of some 40 entries, including at least 19 real and verifyable nebulous objects, found with a simple Galilean refractor of magnification 20, and printed in Palermo in 1654 (Hodierna 1654).
		Hodierna's observations include an independent rediscovery of the Andromeda Nebula (M31) and the Orion Nebula (M42), and at least 9 (probably 10) own true discoveries, as listed by Kenneth Glyn Jones: M6, the Lagoon Nebula M8, M36, M37, M38, M41, M47, NGC 2362, NGC 6231, and (possibly) NGC 2451.
		Hodierna was also the first who made a still preserved drawing of the Orion Nebula M42.

	The first drawing of M42
		The first known drawing of the Orion Nebula, created by Giovanni Batista Hodierna before 1654 from Palma di Montechiaro, Sicily (Hodierna 1654).
		The three stars shown within the nebula are probably Theta1, Theta2 A, and Theta2 B Orionis.
		(1985) have proposed, first because the stars depicted better match the location of those listed, and second because Hodierna's instruments could have hardly resolved the Trapezium, which he probably saw as one star, Theta1.

	Suecia Antiqua et Hodierna - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Suecia Antiqua et Hodierna, or Ancient and Modern Sweden, is the title of a large work of engravings, collected by Erik Dahlberg in the middle of the 17th century.
		The Suecia can be described as a grand vision of Sweden during its period as a world power, and Dahlberg's direct source of inspiration were the topographical publications issued by the German publisher Matthäus Merian.
		In 1661 Dahlberg was granted a royal privilege enabling him to realize his plans that would kept him occupied for a good decade, and a work that would not be printed until after his death.

	O.R.S.A.'S Astronomy Pages: Giovan Battista Hodierna
		Hodierna first listed several nebulae (even though some of his items are simply asterisms, it doesn't weaken the significance of his work) as absolutely peculiar objects, which could easily be mistaken for the comets but, differently from the comets themselves, were stationary as regards to the fixed stars.
		To begin, Hodierna suggests a classification of nebulae, based on the assumption that, ultimately, all the nebulae are made up of stars.
		Hodierna, in "The Admirandis Coeli Characteribus", besides the treatment and the cataloguing of the nebulae, derives a cosmological theory of great historical importance: it comes before, indeed, the de Mairan's theory (1731).

	Trapezium (Theta1 Orionis)
		Previously, it was suggested on this page that the Trapezium was first drawn as a triple star (A, B and C) by Giovanni Hodierna before 1654 and described by Christen Huygens in 1656.
		I believe he is merely trying to indicate the size and location of the nebula relative to Orion’s Sword stars and does not show the Trapezium at all.
		Star D was independently discovered by Jean Picard and Christiaan Huygens in 1684, while E and F were discovered by William Struve and John Herschel in 1826 and 1830, respectively.

	Early Observations of Orion
		Hodierna was an admirer of Galileo, and his own observations probably began in the 1620's.
		We would guess from the large distortions in Hodierna's star maps that his observations were made with a telescope of Galilean design (negative eyepiece).
		Similar distortions to those seen in Hodierna's diagram of Orion's sword may be seen in many of the other star maps printed in his catalog.

		Pavone argues that Odierna took this name to identify himself with the mythical man "hoggidiano," which I gather we could translate as "modern man," in deliberate comparison to ancient man. I confess to not seeing how "hoggidiano" leads to "Hodierna." All accounts indicate that the status of the family was humble.

		An Italian astronomer at the court of the Duke of Montechiaro whose De Admirandis Coeli Caracteribus (1654) describes some 40 objects found with a simple Galilean refractor of magnification 20.
		Hodierna discovered the open clusters now known as M6, M36, M37, M38, M41, M47, NGC 2362, NGC 6231, and NGC 6530 (the cluster associated with the Lagoon Nebula) and several comets, and made the earliest surviving drawing of the Orion Nebula, in which three of the Trapezium stars are shown.

		In 1610, Nicholas-Claude Fabri de Peiresc discovered, through his small telescope, that this star appeared to be made of two stars and a wispy nebula.
		The first known drawing of this object (right) was made sometime before 1654, by Giovanni Batista Hodierna, who spotted a third star in the group.
		This object would later be named the Great Nebula in Orion—one of the first nebulae discovered, drawn, and photographed, at different times in the past 400 years.

	Messier Object 31
		Charles Messier, who cataloged it on August 3, 1764, was obviously unaware of this early reports, and ascribed its discovery to Simon Marius, who was the first to give a telescopic description in 1612, but (according to R.H. Allen) didn't claim its discovery.
		Unaware of both Al Sufi's and Marius' discovery, Giovanni Batista Hodierna independently rediscovered this object before 1654.
		Edmond Halley, however, in his 1716 treat of "Nebulae", accounts the discovery of this "nebula" to the French astronomer Bullialdus (Ismail Bouillaud), who observed it in 1661; but Bullialdus mentions that it had been seen 150 years earlier (in the early 1500s) by some anonymous astronomer (R.H. Allen, 1899/1963).

		Thus, Philippe Loys de Chéseaux independently rediscovered it in 1745-46, and was the first to recognize it as "a very fine star cluster." Abbe Lacaille included it in his catalog of 1751-52 as Lac III.12, and Charles Messier eventually cataloged it on May 23, 1764.
