CHRONOLOGY of Galileo

http://worldofbiography.com/0079%2DGalileo/index1.htm
Galileo's increasingly open Copernicanism began to cause trouble for
him. In 1613, he wrote a letter to his student Benedetto Castelli in
Pisa about the problem of squaring the Copernican theory with certain
biblical passages. Some of the Galileo's enemies sent the copies of
this letter to the Inquisition in Rome. In Rome, many Dominican fathers
lodged complaints against Galileo. Galileo went to Rome for defending
the Copernican cause and his name. In his letter to the Grand Duchess
Christina, he discussed the problem of interpreting Biblical passages
with regard to scientific discoveries. He actually did not interpret
the Bible except for one example.
