Yeah, nice translation you have there from Ibn al-Shatir's work found in the Alhambra after the fall of Granada. If you're going to try to pass it off as a european "discovery" instead of acknowledging the source of your translation while trying to play catch up to islamic astronomy, maybe try not to copy Ibn al-Shatir's drawings exactly. It kind of hurts the fantasy bubble of european "discovery".
