just in case anti-Catholics might conveniently forget: the Vatican Observatory (Specola Vaticana) is still operating in Castelgandolfo with research branches in Arizona. Please read "Brother Astronomer: Adventures of a Vatican Scientist" by Brother Guy Consolmagno SJ. He is the curator of the Vatican's meteorite collection. Dr. Consolmagno earned his bachelor of science in 1974 and master of science in 1975 in Earth and Planetary Sciences from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and his Ph. D. in Planetary Science from the University of Arizona in 1978. From 1978-80 he was a postdoctoral fellow and lecturer at the Harvard College Observatory, and from 1980-1983 continued as postdoc and lecturer at MIT. He has also spent several terms as a visiting scientist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center and as a visiting professor at Loyola College, Baltimore, and Loyola University, Chicago.
