  Simon Marius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Simon Marius (in Latin; German Simon Mayr) (January 10, 1573 December 26, 1624) was a German astronomer.
It is considered possible that Marius discovered the moons independently, but at least some days later than Galileo; if so, he is the only person known to have observed the moons in the period before Galileo published his obeservations.
Simon Marius also claimed to be the discoverer of the Andromeda Galaxy, which had in fact already been known to Arab astronomers of the Middle Ages.

Simon went to the Margrave's school for talented poor boys, however, and Klug says that there is no evidence whatever to support the assertion that the father was Burgermeister.
I take Simon's (and his brother's) presence in that school to indicate that the family was indeed poor.

I speak of Simon Marius of Gunzenhausen; he it was in Padua, where I resided at the time, who set forth in Latin the use of the said compass of mine and, appropriating it to himself, had one of his pupils print this under his name.
Along comes Marius, and, appropriating my very observations, he prints in the title page of his book and again in the opening part of his work that he had already made his observations in the year 1609, trying to give people the idea that he was first.

This led to adispute with Galileo, who accused Marius, not only of being a liar, but also of having copied his own work so that his MundusIovialis was nothing but plagiarism.

Simon Marius claimed to have observed Jupiter's moon as early as late November 1609 (about five weeks prior to Galileo) and had begun recording his observations in January 1610 at about the same time Galileo was first making his observations.
However, since Marius did not publish his observations right away as Galileo had done, his claims were impossible to verify.
It wouldn't be until the mid-1800's that the names of the Galilean moons, Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto, would be officially adopted, and only after it became very apparent that naming moons by number would be very confusing as new additional moons were being discovered.

In much of the earlier astronomical literature, it is simply referred to by its Roman numeral designation (a system used by Galileo to snub Marius) as Jupiter II or as the "second satellite of Jupiter".
