Other products by Devine Entertainment

The astronomer Galileo pits science against theological doctrine.

At the dawn of the 17th century, astronomer Galileo (Michael Moriarty) is on the verge of uncovering the biggest mysteries of the universe. But his noble ambitions are thwarted by lack of money, a lazy brother and a jealous rival.

Galileo is pleasantly surprised to find support from the pampered son of the powerful Medici family. Under Galileo’s tutelage, Prince Cosimo finds that in searching for the stars, one has to have his feet firmly on the ground.

Inspired by Galileo’s quest for scientific truth, Cosimo helps Galileo invent the first telescope. Winner of two Daytime Emmys®.
