I just published "The Little Balance," describing the hydrostatic principles of weighing small quantities! Buy it at your nearest bookstore!

I am the first of six children....my childhood was pretty exciting.

Can you believe I was just accused twice of heresy by the church for my beliefs? #TheNerve

“In questions of science the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual.”

I enrolled to complete a medical degree at the University of Pisa, but instead I ended up choosing to study mathematics.

Recent research implies that I discovered Neptune two centuries before it was officially known! #iamaboss

My telescope allows me to see with a magnification of eight or nine times 👊 #MyTelescopeIsBetterThanYours

I was just told that I have to spend the last 8 years of my life under house arrest, and the Catholic Church banned anything written by me😣

#FBF to when I discovered the first moons known to orbit a planet other than Earth! Jupiter's moons are now named the Galilean Satellites!

I just remembered that my birthday was 5 days ago! 🎈 Party tonight at my house to celebrate!

So, you see, the orbit of a planet is elliptical. 🌐

Rest in peace to my wonderful daughter, Maria Celeste, who has just recently passed away while living in a convent near Arcetri.

I now announce that I have discovered a new libration of the moon, different from the optical libration! 🌘

I am now a Grandfather! 👴 Sestilia Bocchineri, my son's wife, just gave birth to a baby boy they named Galileo! Wow, I feel old now.

I first studied Euclid's Elements in Florence for my University. I hear that Euclid is now known as the Father of Geometry! #nerdstrong
