@kakashi I'm finding it all very interesting too! I have come to believe there was more to Galileo's arrest; I think he was treading on the church's toes, so to speak. Also, Kepler’s own mother was accused of witchcraft and imprisoned for fourteen months, even though there was little to no evidence!
