Galileo's Last Laugh

"...the Istituto e Museo di Storia della Scienza (Institute and Museum of the History of Science), around the corner from the much better known Uffizi.
The small museum contains a number of early scientific instruments, some made, used, or invented by Galileo. Most astonishing is Galileo's preserved middle finger, shown above. Keith observed that, even now, centuries after his death, Galileo is still giving the Vatican the finger."
