Nobody Remembers Galileo

Nobody Remembers

Galileo, Galilei: Today was his birthday: He was born February the 15th, 1564, and not a word was mentioned about the guy.

According to Wikipedia:

Galileo has been called the “father of modern “observational astronomy” , the father of “modern physics”  the “father of science”,  and “the Father of Modern Science”.  His contributions to observational astronomy include the telescopic confirmation of the phases of Venus, the discovery of the four largest satellites of Jupiter (named the Galilean moons  honor), and the observation and analysis of sunspots. Galileo also worked in applied science and technology, inventing an improved military compass and other instruments. According to Stephen Hawking, Galileo probably bears more of the responsibility for the birth of modern science than anybody else,  and Albert Einstein called him the father of modern science.

Of course the Catholic harassed him all his life for heresy, so I think we can see a message here: It was Galileo that proved that the earth and the planets revolve around the sun. (working on Copernicus’s theory before him) Nobody suggests, in honor of the great man, that we should all proclaim in the devastating news of the closing of NASA, that the planet earth does not revolve around Barack Obama. Now, it’s not the Catholic church that seeks to stop the exploration of the planets…it’s our government. Did any of our schools celebrate this man today between lunch box raids? You tell me.
BECAUSE Galileo was so smart: We now can look at pictures like these: God Bless Galileo.
