# Copernicus is invited to advise the Lateran calendar commission around 1514 and declines to go to Rome

Date: 1514

## The fact

Around 1514 [Copernicus](/people/nicolaus-copernicus) was invited to advise the Lateran calendar commission and declined to go to Rome. The instrument is that invitation-and-refusal, not the 1582 bull. Nicolaus Copernicus's documented role is: Paul of Middelburg asked. He declined a Rome trip, later citing incomplete lunar and solar data. The calendar is a church-fiscal time instrument. Medium on unique memorandum.

## Context

Paul of Middelburg is the named asker in the later file. Sharing that commission is required. The setting of Copernicus is invited to advise the Lateran calendar commission around 1514 and declines to go to Rome is the public file around 1514-06-01. Shared offices, unnamed crews, printers, or later editors may appear without becoming this instrument. Driver [fiscal-policy-sustainability](/drivers/fiscal-policy-sustainability) is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.
