Albert Curtz (''Curtius'' in Latin; 1600, Munich – December 19, 1671, Munich), was a German astronomer and member of the Society of Jesus. He expanded on the works of Tycho Brahe and used the pseudonym of ''Lucius Barrettus''. It is interesting to note that the Latin version of the name Albert Curtz, Albertus Curtius is an anagram of his pseudonym, Lucius Barretus.〔Nobre, Sérgio R. (2007) http://www.rbhm.org.br/issues/RBHM%20-%20Festschrift/26%20-%20Sergio%20-%20final.pdf〕 Together with Johann Deckers, Kepler, Francesco Maria Grimaldi, and Jean-Baptiste Riccioli, he contributed to our early understanding of the Moon. He published ''Historia coelestis (libris commentariis manuscriptis observationum vicennalium viri generosi Tichonis Brahe'' ) and ''Augustae Vindelicorum, Simonem Utzschneiderum'' in 1666. The crater Curtius on the Moon is named after him. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Albert Curtz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
