Sоurce: Letter tо the Grаnd Duchess Christinа оf Tuscаny. From Discoveries and Opinions of Galileo: Translated with an Introduction and Notes by Stillman Drake To the Most Serene Grand Duchess Mother: Some years ago, as Your Serene Highness well knows, I discovered in the heavens many things that had not been seen before. The novelty (newness) of these things...in contradiction to the physical notions commonly held among academic philosophers, stirred up against me no small number of professors—as if I had placed these things in the sky with my own hands in order to upset nature and overturn the sciences. . . Showing a greater fondness for their own opinions than for truth, they sought to deny and disprove the new things. To this end they hurled various charges and published numerous writings filled with vain (worthless) arguments, and they made the grave mistake of sprinkling these with passages taken from places in the Bible which they had failed to understand properly. . . Persisting in their original resolve (determination) to destroy me by any means they can think of, these men are aware of my views in astronomy and philosophy. They know that as to the arrangement of the parts of the universe, I hold the sun to be situated motionless in the center of the revolution of the celestial orbs while the earth revolves about the sun. . .
