Great content but not new. The digitized Leonardo da Vinci’s notebooks have been online for 10 years.

Why does it have to be new? Did anyone say it was new?

This is fantastic news to me, don’t care how long ago someone did it. I learned about it just now!

Wait. What’s going on in the lower right-hand corner of the last page?

Looks like a hand reaching out to grasp something… related to the device/idea he sketched out, I guess.

That was my other guess.

Otherwise it could have been the first indication of animation. Predating Galileo’s sunspots.
