Galileo's Finger

Apparently, Galileo was so cool, people just couldn't let him go when he died. So they chopped off some fingers, knocked out some teeth, and sold him off. And then they lost bits.

But apparently two of the missing fingers have been found.

Weird.

Speaking of science types getting chopped up, did you know that Einstein's brain was removed for study after his death?
