	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Vatican Observatory
		At the death of Gilii the Vatican Observatory was discontinued, for the following reason: Pius VII and Leo XII raised the standard of studies in the papal states.
		From the observatory of the late Marquis of Montecuccoli in Modena, of which Denza had been director, a four-inch equatorial, a three-inch transit instrument, and four pendulum clocks with two chronometers, were acquired.
		After the material restoration of the observatory, the main problems were a library and the measuring of the astrographic plates.
