More than a name: the story behind the finger.
Galileo didn’t just observe the stars — he dared to question the systems built beneath them.
He challenged the rules, rewrote what was thought to be untouchable. He wasn’t just a scientist. He was a disruptor.
His legacy isn’t just scientific, it’s a call to those who dare to think differently, speak up, and build the future on their own terms.
During the exhumation, someone took Galileo’s right middle finger, not by accident, but with reverence.
It was placed in an ornate glass case, trimmed with gold and set on marble, a reliquary not for a saint, but for a man who dared to know.
More than a relic, the finger became a symbol: the hand that pointed beyond dogma, the gesture of defiance turned into legacy.
It was recovered by Anton Francesco Gori, moved by the will of Vincenzo Viviani, Galileo’s last disciple.
Centuries later, the gesture lives on.

A coincidence?
Yes, but only biologically speaking.
Because Finger is proof that Galileo’s disciples have not ended. As long as there are people willing to dedicate their lives to the search for innovative ideas and to constantly challenge the status quo for the better, Galileo’s legacy isn’t just remembered. It evolves.
