Galileo Galilei and His Clerical Journey

Skibidi vibes, Galileo Galilei was lowkey the GOAT of astronomy, flexing his telescope like a sigma in 1609. Fast forward to 2009, the world celebrates 400 years of his cosmic views. The International Year of Astronomy got everyone buzzing, like a goon on a toilet break. This dude was not just about stargazing; he was also trying to secure a cushy gig for his fam, aiming for those sweet canons at the Pisa Cathedral, the one with the dank Leaning Tower. But his son was not about that life, rejecting his chance to join the clergy. Galilei kept trying to ship his relatives into the holy ranks, but they were all like, 'Nah, I am good.' In the end, he scored the titles himself, making bank like a hustler in the 17th century.
