What do Stephen Hawking and Galileo share most in common?

First correct answer wins, unless someone else can elaborate with something more I wasn't aware of. Please provide references :)

Update:

These first three answers are all quite good, but I'm afraid the most obvious answer is still up for grabs!

    They share the same birthday. Stephen Hawking was born exactly 300 years after Galileo.

    The ability to look beyond their time frames science. They both changed their world´s cosmology. They have been misunderstood, although Galileo had it tougher than Hawking. Science changed after each one of them.

    apart from brilliant minds, both are astronomers and share a common fascination for the cosmic workings of the universe and have an inquisitive mindset.
