Willebrord Snellius or Willebrord Snel van Royen (1580-1626) was born the son of Leiden University's mathematics professor, and succeeded his father in 1613. Best known in the English-speaking world as Snell, his name was attached to the law of refraction of light. In this title, Snell described a comet that had landed on Earth in November 1618, and includes descriptions of other comets.
