Branch of Science Physicists Nationality Italian Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) Italian scientist and philosopher. Galileo was a true Renaissance man, excelling at many different endeavors, including lute playing and painting. He attended medical school in Padua. While in a cathedral, he noticed that a chandelier was swinging with the same period as timed by his pulse, regardless of its amplitude. He began to study the isochronism of the pendulum in 1581, as well as the motion of bodies. Using an inclined plane, he showed that all bodies fall at the same rate. He also investigated cohesion and concluded that a waterfall breaks when the weight of the water becomes too great, the same reason that water pumps could only raise water by 34 feet. Galileo described his views on dynamics and statics in Dialog on the Two New Sciences, which emphasized mathematics over rhetorical arguments. Galileo was one of the earliest to propose abstract dynamical theories which were ideal and would not be observed under less than ideal circumstances. Galileo observed the supernova of 1604 and tried unsuccessfully to measure its parallax. According to

[Back To The Scientists List] Galileo Galileo (Galilei), astronomer, mathematician, and physicist was another of those great anti-Aristotelian scientists of the age, such as Johann Kepler (1571-1630) who also published laws of planetary motion. These great men came to their great discoveries because of their scientific view of Nature. They were a new breed of philosophers, natural philosophers, or scientists as we call them today. They did not dwell long on the useless question: Why do things happen? They asked: "How do things happen? Galileo was an Italian. At the age of 19 he discovered the principle of isochronism that each oscillation of a pendulum takes the same time despite changes in amplitude. Soon thereafter he became known for his ideas on hydrostatic balance; and, further, his treatise on the center of gravity of falling bodies. He found experimentally that bodies do not fall with velocities proportional to their weights, a conclusion received with hostility because it contradicted the accepted teaching of Aristotle . Galileo discovered that the path of a projectile is a parabola, and he is credited with anticipating

Father Occupation: Musician, Merchant Vincenzio Galilei was descended from a Florentine patrician family. He himself was a distinguished musician. He was not an economic success. He died leaving his oldest son (Galileo) with heavy financial responsibilities but no assets. Financial stringency forced the father into commerce and made him move to Pisa, where Galileo was born. Everything is relative. I cannot see that Galileo grew up impoverished for all the talk of his father's lack of success. I list the financial position as unknown. 3.

Galileo (1564-1642) Galileo, Italian physicist and astronomer, was born at Pisa February 15, 1564 and died at Arcetri, near Florence, January 8, 1642. In 1581 he entered the University of Pisa to study medicine and the Aristotelian philosophy, but soon abandoned medicine for mathematics and physical science. In 1585 he left the university and went to Florence to study under Otilio Ricci. He was professor of mathematics at Pisa 1589-91, and at Padua 1592-1610, lecturing there to crowds of enthusiastic pupils from all over Europe. In 1610 Cosmo II, grand duke of Tuscany, appointed him philosopher and mathematician at the Florentine court, thus relieving him of all academic routine and enabling him to devote himself entirely to his scientific investigations. Galileo's chief contributions to science are his formulation of the laws governing failing bodies, the invention of the telescope, the discovery of the isochronism of the pendulum, and numerous astronomical discoveries, including the phases of Venus, four satellites of Jupiter, and the spots on the sun. His works were stricken from the Index in 1835. The most important are The System of the World, in Four Dialogues

133. Galileo: L'uomo Galileo http://www.pd.astro.it/MOSTRA/G1100MAN.HTM

L'AVVENTURA INIZIATA DA GALILEO Quasi 400 anni fa, proprio a Padova, Galileo Galilei punta il suo cannocchiale verso la Luna, usando cosi' per la prima volta uno strumento per vedere nitidamente gli oggetti celesti dopo millenni di osservazioni del cielo ad occhio nudo. Era il 1609, e da allora il progresso delle nostre conoscenze astronomiche e' rimasto strettamente legato allo sviluppo di sempre nuovi e migliori strumenti di indagine. Per essere ben comprese tuttavia, le osservazioni necessitano, come all'epoca di Galileo, dell'interpretazione e della intuizione della mente umana. IL CANNOCCHIALE DI GALILEO GALILEI Questa copia settecentesca riproduce uno dei molti cannocchiali costruiti da Galileo, costituiti da due lenti, l'obiettivo e l'oculare, tenute alla giusta distanza da un tubo in cartone o, come in questo caso, in legno rivestito in pelle. L'ingrandimento era di circa 20 volte. E' con uno strumento come questo che il grande scienziato compi' le numerose osservazioni che lo portarono alla convinzione della validita' del sistema copernicano.

134. Galileo III: The Inquisition direct challenges to Aristotle s idea of the perfection of the heavens some Aristotelian astronomers refused to look through galileo s telescope, others http://www.crs4.it/Ars/arshtml/galileo3.html

Part III: The Inquisition All of these discoveries and others posed yet more direct challenges to Aristotle's idea of the perfection of the heavens some Aristotelian astronomers refused to look through Galileo's telescope, others tried to deny what he had seen. The Roman Catholic Church, however, was becoming increasingly concerned and a young Dominican, Tommaso Caccini, was the first to denounce Galileo officially and the Copernican theory his observations seemed to support from the pulpit during a sermon in the Duomo or Cathedral of Florence. A few years later, as concerns mounted, Galileo was officially advised by Cardinal Bellarmino on the Pope's behalf to proceed cautiously and speak only hypothetically about the Copernican theory, but not as if it were actually real. Galileo returned to Florence and continued work on his book, but now he gave more emphasis to mathematical arguments rather than to esperimental or physical arguments. as the Pope wished. But when the book finally appeared in 1632, it raised an immediate storm of protest leading immediately to Galileo's arrest and famous trial by the Inquisition in Rome.
