GALILEO IS A SLOB

dissss guy despite his oh so wonderful astronimical achievements blahblahblah

and the way he figured out to look at the sun was genius...

he was completely helpless without his daughter


Maria Celeste had helped him survive throughout his older years. She had taken care of him when they were living in Florence. When Galileo got sick she was at his aid 24/7. Maria was watching out for her father's well-being and i presume was a very patient woman.

Maria had also given her father advice when he had gone to the Inquisition. She gave him insight for trial and how to keep his mouth shut and follow the church's orders.

She also became his personal editor for his publishings. She motivated his writings and corrected and edited his manuscript, cutting and preparing it in confidence. She has helped Galileo in so many ways that Galileo was able to publish the Dialogo.
