He makes plans to seek the sponsorship of the Medici Court in Florence where he hopes to be able to focus more on his writing and research, but his close friend and colleague, Sagredo, pleads with him not to leave ...

With a diameter of 46.7 ± 0.9 km, it is the largest member of the Carme group and the fourth largest irregular moon of Jupiter. [6] It is light red in color (B−V=0.76, V−R=0.47), similar to D-type asteroids and consistent with Taygete , but not Kalyke .
