Galileo

There were two Until Galileo's experiment, it was widely believed that large objects fell to Earth faster than small ones. That is, it was thought that if two objects of different sizes were dropped from the same height, the larger one would strike the ground first. Galileo showed that not to be the case. But his experiment was extraordinary for another reason. Galileo discredited another Aristotlian idea: that natural phenomena could be explained solely via analysis. Up until Galileo's time, the scientific method had yet to be developed; experimentation was largely unheard of. Proving or disproving a hypothesis via experimentation was not done. Aristotle and his peers believed that natural laws were discovered through discussion and argumentation, and the philosopher who articulated and defended his theories most persuasively was credited with their discovery. Validation through experimentation was not required.
He dropped two cannonballs of different masses from the tower and watched them hit the ground at the same time, disproving Aristotle's theory that mass affects the gravity in acted on an object. He proving that mass doesn't matter but air resistance does. But, it was never proved the experiment was done at the leaning tower of Pisa.
Debates had started up on one of aristoles laws of nature, that heavier objects fell faster than lighter objects. Galileo wanted to try. He needed to be able to drop the weights from a tall height. The perfect building was The leaning tower of Pisa that was 54 metres tall. He dropped the 2 weights and found out that aristole was wrong. Because the two weights fell at the same time.

Galileo did not invent the military compass. The military compass, also known as the mariner's compass, was invented in ancient China during the Han Dynasty (2nd century BC). Galileo Galilei was an Italian scientist known for his work in astronomy and physics during the 16th and 17th centuries.

Galileo was charged with hersey because the Catholic church decided that the idea of the planets going around the Sun was preposterous, they declared that scientists must treat heliocentric thinking as a hypothesis only and not fact. As it turned out Galileo went against the grain and published many works that disputed those, he was told that he may not teach, write, or speak about his ideas as if they were fact, he continued through 2 more popes, eventually he was held on "trial" by the Roman Inquisition, he decided to plea to lesser chargers for less punishment. He was forced to write a document that says he pushed his ideas too hard and put under house arrest where he spent the rest of his days.

One of the greatest men in scientific history, and he wasn't allowed to continue doing work. Stephen Hawking forced to work at McDonalds... YAY RELIGION!

His achievements include improvements to the telescope and consequent astronomical observations and support for Copernicanism.

Galileo Galilei's childhood is not talked of much, for his great discovories were made later in his life. What I have learned is that as a childhood, he liked to make little mechines out of objects he found around the house, which were modled off of other machines and toys he had. Many of these machines worked.

Galileo meant that progress and advancement in knowledge are built upon the work of those who came before us, like standing on the shoulders of giants to see further. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing and honoring the contributions of past thinkers in furthering our understanding of the world.

The last space probe launched was the Tianwen-1 mission to Mars, which launched in July 2020 by the China National Space Administration.

the phases of Venus could only be explained by it orbiting the Sun, not Earth as in the geocentric model. This observation provided evidence that supported the heliocentric system proposed by Copernicus.

The world would likely be different without Galileo, as his discoveries and defense of the heliocentric model of the solar system were pivotal in the advancement of modern science. Without his contributions, our understanding of astronomy and physics may have progressed at a different pace or in a different direction.

Yes, the world would likely be different without Galileo. His contributions to the fields of physics and astronomy helped to shape our modern understanding of the universe. Without his influence, scientific progress may have been delayed or taken a different trajectory.

Aristotle's dynamic motion theory was proven wrong by a man named Galileo. He tested Aristotle's theory by dropping a heavy object and a lighter object at the same time. The experiment proved Aristotle wrong because the result was that the two objects were falling at the same rate (speed).

Galileo met his mistress, Marina Gamba, in Venice in the early 16th century. She was a young woman with whom he had three children out of wedlock. Their relationship was kept largely private due to social norms of the time.

Galileo supported the heliocentric model, which placed the Sun at the center of the solar system with planets, including Earth, orbiting around it. He provided evidence for this model through his observations of the phases of Venus, which could only occur in a heliocentric system where Venus orbits the Sun.

It does, up to a limit called "terminal velocity". Terminal velocity is reached when the force of friction against the air equals the force of gravity acting on the raindrop.

As the drop falls, it hits molecules in the air, and each of those molecules slows the raindrop down just a little bit. As gravity pulls the drop down, soon it hits so many molecules per unit of time that the combined effect prevents it from gaining any more speed.

It was sent into Jupiters atmosphere due to the possibility of an ocean beneath the icy crust of jupiters moon europa. Galileo could potentially be carrying bacteria that could be harmful to europa, so was destroyed to protect it.

Galileo was imprisoned for supporting the Copernican theory that the Earth revolves around the sun, which contradicted the Catholic Church's belief that the Earth was the center of the universe. His views were seen as heretical and went against the church's teachings at the time.

Most of Jupiter's smaller moons were actually asteroids in the asteroid belt. Jupiter's immense gravity pulled them out and into it's orbit. Some just spun around and around until it was flung into space, but most stayed to become moons.

Aristotle did not invent the telescope; he lived roughly 2000 years before the telescope was invented.

The bones on the moon were later determined to be remains of various animals, likely from experiments conducted on earlier missions. Some bones were also likely brought to the moon as a part of cultural or symbolic acts by the astronauts.

John Newton got some early religious instruction from his mother, who had died when he was a child, he had long since given up any religious convictions. However, on a homeward voyage, while he was attempting to steer the ship through a violent storm, he experienced what he was to refer to later as his "great deliverance." He recorded in his journal that when all seemed lost and the ship would surely sink. Later in his cabin he reflected and began to believe that God had addressed him through the storm and that grace had begun to work for him

Galileo used to telescope to map out the stars. To be honest, the telescope was very important because he noticed that Jupiter actually had moons... this got Galileo into trouble because it proved that the earth wasn't the center of the universe (went against the church)...... he studied the crescents on Venus and such. It provided him a scientific tool to go beyond the normal humans eye sight. If you want to know more im sure wiki has plenty of pages on Galilo. :)

None this time... did this from my memory. :)

He helped develop the telescope, as well as opened many peoples eyes to different philosophies and theorums. I believe he was a scholar in physics and conducted many experiments on things that pertained to gravity. If you look up his experiments involving arcs and falling rates, you can learn a little bit more.

Yes, Galileo had jobs before he was a scientist. Galileo found an interest in math. he became a math tutor for a while

Galileo's telescope sightings went against traditional European thought by challenging the geocentric model of the universe, which placed Earth at the center. His observations of the moons of Jupiter and the phases of Venus supported the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus, where the Sun is at the center of the solar system. This clashed with the prevailing religious and philosophical beliefs of the time.
