VOICED: Copernicus's remains laid to rest -- again

The remains of Nicolas Copernicus, the father of modern astronomy who was born in the 15th century, were identified last November thanks to comparative DNA tests on two strands of hair found in an ancient tome. After undergoing the kind of study that he would have appreciated, Copernicus is laid to rest in a marked grave nearly 500 years after his death Frombork Poland (Footage by AFPTV via Getty Images)
