And Christensen's artwork glows with the light of the stars he studied.Galileo's contributions were so numerousâthe telescope! the microscope!âand his ideas so world-changingâthe sun-centric solar system!âthat Albert Einstein called him "the father of modern science." But in his own time he was branded a heretic and imprisoned in his home. He was a man who insisted on his right to pursue the truth, no matter what the costâmaking his life as interesting and instructive as his ideas.
