Galileo

He did not need to discover that as it was already known by the ancient Greeks.

Charles Darwin attended the University of Edinburgh in 1825 at the age of 16, where he studied medicine. He later transferred to the University of Cambridge in 1828 to study theology.

Galileo's mother, Giulia Ammannati di Pescia, died in 1620.

On October 31, 1992, Pope John Paul II expressed regret for how the Galileo affair was handled, and officially conceded that the Earth was not stationary, as the result of a study conducted by the Pontifical Council for Culture. In March 2008 the Vatican proposed to complete its rehabilitation of Galileo by erecting a statue of him inside the Vatican walls. In December of the same year, during events to mark the 400th anniversary of Galileo's earliest telescopic observations, Pope Benedict XVI praised his contributions to astronomy.

i thought there waz gravity everwhere

Yes, Galileo Galilei was a famous astronomer, he also made significant contributions to physics, mathematics and philosophy but he is probably most famous for his work in astronomy.

He was born February 15, 1564 in Pisa, Italy. Among his many achievements in astronomy he suggested that the Earth revolved around the Sun rather than the Sun moving around the Earth which was both the common belief and a matter of Catholic Church doctrine at the time. This brought him into conflict with the Church and nearly resulted in his execution as a heretic.

He is a very significant figure in the history of astronomy and science. Albert Einstein called him the father of modern science.

1610 March

Galileo Galilei worked alone, which was common during his time. He did correspond with other scientists, such as Kepler.

Galileo challenged Aristotle's belief that heavier objects fell faster than lighter ones.

an object that is moving will keep moving until something stops it

Galileo Galilei enjoyed observing the heavens through his telescope, making astronomical discoveries, and conducting experiments to understand the natural world. He was passionate about advancing the field of physics and challenging the prevailing beliefs of his time.

That anything can be explain in a mathematical way.

In one respect, the world would be pretty much the same with or without Einstein's contributions, because physics is - it does not depend on equations - those equations simply describe what is already happening or what is perceived to happen.

In another respect, without Einstein, one possible outcome is that Hitler and the Nazis would have won World War II, and that would change everything.

The Galileo probe flew by Venus in 1990 on its way to Jupiter. It used the gravitational pull of Venus to adjust its trajectory for the journey to Jupiter, where it arrived in 1995 to study the planet and its moons.

Galileo said the earth was not the center of the universe. Galileo promoted the heliocentric idea.

The basis was that Galileo was accused of heresy for reinterpreting the scriptures.

Galileo promoted the new theory of the planets' movements among the stars devised by Copernicus. This was against the church's teaching at the time because it placed the Sun at the center, but Galileo was told he could teach the new theory as a convenient way of making predictions, but that he must not insist it was the absolute truth.

Copernicus's theory had some good points, and the old Ptolemaic theory failed to account for some of the discoveries Galileo had made with a telescope, but at that time there was no way of finding out conclusively which theory was correct.

After several years of this Galileo published a book with a summary of the argument, in which the Pope was portrayed as a simpleton for maintaining the Earth is at the centre. After that Galileo was put on trial for heresy and asked to provide proof. There was no proof and he was convicted, and he retracted his argument.

But many years later, after Newton's discoveries, it was found that Kepler's model, which used elliptical orbits but retained the idea of having the Sun at the center, was probably correct, and further discoveries in the next 200 years supported this view so that today it is generally accepted as right. So Galileo turned out to have been right all along, without being able to prove it during his lifetime.

Galileo discovered Jupiter's moons which had not been seen before he turned his telescope on to Jupiter.

Galileo observed the four moons and deduced that they are in orbits around Jupiter. The significance of this, as Galileo realised, was that up until then everything in the universe was assumed to revolve around the Earth.

Galileo thought that this discovery added credibility to the new theory of the planets' movements among the stars, published by Copernicus in1543, which had the Sun at the centre with the six known planets revolving around it.

He was arrested after publishing a book that advanced the heliocentric theory (the Earth going round the Sun) as fact and not just a scientific theory. The book portrayed the Pope as an imbecile, and as Galileo had already been warned that he could not say the movement of the Earth is a fact without proof, he was put on trial for heresy.

At that time there was no proof that the theory is correct and Galileo was forced to admit it and retract.

In later centuries more and more scientific evidence was discovered that forced everyone to accept that the Earth is in orbit round the Sun. So in a way Galileo was right all along but he just got himself into trouble with his aggressive behaviour.

He made important scientific discoveries of his own but the heliocentric theory is not on the list.

I think that it was expected to make the first telescope.

galileo was put on trail becuase he published a book supporting that the planets orbit the sun

Saturn is one of the planets that can be seen with the naked eye and reference has been made to it for thousands of years. No one knows who first recognized Saturn as something other than a star, or when that was

What is known is that Galileo Galilei was the first to observe the planet through a telescope in 1610.

Galileo invented the experimental method of science and is credited as the founder of physics; he demonstrated the equivalence of inertial and gravitational mass, and also experimentally demonstrated that the Earth rotates, by means of an ingenius pendulum experiment.

35 millions dollar

Galileo Galilei is bet known for his studies in physics and astronomy. He mostly only used mathematics in his physics studies, but his name is attached to a paradox he created, stating there are as many perfect squares as whole numbers, despite most numbers not being perfect squares.

i think it is the guy whose surname is Snell.
