Galileo and his daughter <3

Mant people today recognize Galileo for all that he accomplished in his lifetime and the many important discoveries that he made.....
funny thing is that there is one person that contributed sooo much to his work that without this person Galileo's teachings/ writings would not be as popular as they are today. They might not even exist.
This very important person is his very own daughter.
She took care of him throughout his life, handled his financial matters, and she was his "medicine woman". She took care of him in every aspect. She even had a role in editing his manuscripts. She was the essential component to his sciences, works, and etc. We owe much of what we know to his daughter for she is the person that helped make the spread of his sciences possible.
