The age of science, sentence 1

In 1543 Copernicus wrote that the Earth goes round the Sun, Galileo's telescope found moons circling Jupiter, and Newton showed that the same gravity pulls an apple down and keeps the Moon going round the Earth.

Who acts: Copernicus, Earth, telescope, moons, Newton, same gravity · What happens: write, go, find, circle, show, pull down · To what, where: 1543, Sun, moons, Jupiter, apple, Moon · Speech: someone speaks here

This is a sentence of the lesson «The age of science» of the history course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (Copernicus, Earth, telescope, moons), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.

The tree: Mova annot: Rust (en) → Haiku 5.5 (medium, Batches API) patches; gates UD 2.18; agreed by treeagree rules (Stanza, Trankit, spaCy trf): R5-strong ×2, R7-rel-agree ×1, R8-pos-agree ×1. The frames are read from the tree by Mova's frames reader (prag) when this page is built, the lesson read in order, so a pronoun may be resolved from an earlier sentence.
