1610 was a year.

On 7 January, Galileo Galilei wrote in a letter that he had spotted three of Jupiter's moons. A few months later, he discovered a fourth. The final moon, the golden planet of Voga, would not be discovered by humans until the 29th century. (PROSE: Time Traveller's Diary [+]Chris Farnell, BBC Children's Books (2020).)

In March 1610, a mob was so enraged at how exceptionally bad Francis Pearson's latest play was that they burned all extant copies of his works.

In September, Pearson and Edward Kelley met in Prague, then visited the home of Elizabeth Bathory. (PROSE: Managra [+]Stephen Marley, Virgin Missing Adventures (Virgin Books, 1995).)
