The original letter in which Galileo argued against the doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church has been rediscovered in London.Credit: The Royal SocietyVia Nature: Discovery of Galileo’s long-lost letter shows he edited his heretical ideas to fool the Inquisition—There seems there is nothing new or unknown on this find.
