This short article, written by Br. Bob Macke, S. J. (an astronomer at the Vatican Observatory) and posted on the V.O.’s Sacred Space Astronomy/The Catholic Astronomer blog, provides an overview of the life and work of Fr. Angelo Secchi. The video, produced by the V.O., features Macke, Br. Guy Consolmagno (Director of the V.O.), Dr. Ileana Chinnici of Palermo Observatory, and others—and some great footage of the areas in Rome where Secchi worked.
