Look up youtuber “clickspring”. He builds one from scratch. If you like machining he does beautiful work. About 10+ videos. Well worth it.

The Church silenced a lot of people, Galileo chief among them.
The Church didn't silence Galileo. In fact, for most of his life, they supported him and his work. He only ran afoul of the Church when he insisted on presenting the Copernican theory as fact (which many scientists of the day disagreed with, not just the Church) and then making theological conclusions from it, and even then, the charges against him weren't that drastic. He was somewhere around 60 years old when the trial took place.

Imagine a few thousand years into the future when archaeologists discover the cell phones dropped into the water. They pull the images off the memory card and see strange creatures.
The archaeologists of the future you see are insects...
