                contributed to the development of pendulum clocks, pantographs, 
                barometers, reflecting telescopes and microscopes, to scientific 
                fields as various as magnetism, optics and electricity. They observed, 
                in some cases before anyone else, the colored bands on Jupiter’s 
                surface, the Andromeda nebula and Saturn’s rings. They theorized 
                about the circulation of the blood (independently of Harvey), 
                the theoretical possibility of flight, the way the moon effected 
                the tides, and the wave-like nature of light. Star maps of the 
                southern hemisphere, symbolic logic, flood-control measures on 
                the Po and Adige rivers, introducing plus and minus signs into 
                Italian mathematics – all were typical Jesuit achievements, and 
                scientists as influential as Fermat, Huygens, Leibniz and Newton 
                were not alone in counting Jesuits among their most prized correspondents
