Galileoooo's Daughter

Ok, so right now I have the song Bohemiam Rhapsody stuck in my head lol, the Galileo Galileo GALILEO! part haha its funny. Well enough about Galileo, his daughter played a very important role in his life. When he was really ill, she took care of his finances, made him medication, and she also edited his writings. She did not know a lot about astrology, but somehow she understood what her father wrote. Father daughter bond yess. Anyways, she basically had his back when Pope Urban was preoccupied with the 3o years war and the church was out to get him. Maria Cileste was a nun, she chose to live her life in poverty, they didnt have the material things, didn't live lives in gluttony or greed. They were very humble. Since the nuns were willing to do that, they were very dedicated to the church.
