Florence, 1633. Galileo, Florentine scholar, discovered through a tool of his invention, the telescope, a solar system in total contradiction with the precepts of the Bible and defended by the Church. Nicolas Copernicus, Polish monk and Giordano Bruno, Italian religious, had already paid with their lives for saying that the Earth orbits the Sun.
