Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood
During Ezio's time in Rome, Copernicus visited the Vatican and studied a lunar eclipse that happened in the 1500s. He went from square to square in Rome, teaching the public. He talked to them about mathmatics and science. The Vatican hear of Copernicus' scientific preaching and decide that all scientists must be stopped because they teach that science is more important than the church. It's up to Ezio to save Copernicus and the other scholars. [1]
