At age twenty, Galileo noticed a lamp swinging overhead while he was in a cathedral. To check how long it took for the lamp to swing back and forth, he used his pulse to time large and small swings. Galileo discovered something that no one else had ever realized: the period of each swing was exactly the same. This made him instantly famous.
