In 1611, Scheiner observed sunspots; in 1612 he published the "Apelles letters" in Augsburg.
•
They provided one of many reasons for the subsequent unpleasant argument between Scheiner and Galileo Galilei.
•
One of Scheiner’s letters to Leopold from 1626 informs the Archduke that Galilei is not to hear of Scheiner’s work concerning the sunspots.
•
The inventory of Leopold’s library contains works by Tycho Brahe and Galileo Galilei: Leopold lead a friendly correspondence with Galilei.
•
At last he had time for mathematical books, among them Galilei’s Il saggiatore, which contains plagiarisms of Scheiner’s work while accusing the Jesuit of plagiarizing himself.
