Galileo ... observed the planet Saturn, and at first mistook its rings for planets, thinking it was a three-bodied system. When he observed the planet later, Saturn's rings were directly oriented at Earth, causing him to think that two of the bodies had disappeared. The rings reappeared when he observed the planet in 1616, further confusing him.[23]

In the coming year, Galileo hopes to roll out a .LRN-based course catalog made available by the community, and to develop more advanced features for the assessment system. With a low total cost of ownership and in-house development costs, Galileo plans to continue to invest heavily in .LRN.
