Wassup y'all! Yale Professor and astronomer Ivano Dal Prete returns to the tent for a fascinating journey through history—from testing 700-year-old bookmarks made of salami to uncovering the real story behind the Church's ban of Galileo and Copernicus. Through his extensive research in historical archives, Dal Prete reveals surprising truths about the complex relationship between science and religion in the Renaissance. What actually drove the conflict between Galileo and the Church? Why were Copernicus's writings really condemned? And how did Napoleon's arrival change everything? Join us as we separate historical fact from fiction and break down how geological discoveries challenged traditional biblical interpretations.
