About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
GALILEO'S TELESCOPE HOW HE CHANGED THE WORLD Documentary Science Space History. Paolo Galluzzi, director of the Istituto e Museo Nazionale di Storia della Scienza in Florence (soon to be renamed Museo Galileo Galilei, to the relief of leaflet printers across the city), is introducing an exhibition of Galileo's telescope and astronomical work at the Nobel Museum in Stockholm. As he speaks a slowly rotating roster of the names and faces of Nobel prize-winners pass over his head on a track, announcing the importance of it all. There's Charles Richet, honoured for his work on anaphylaxis in 1913. Alfred Werner for his work on the linkages between atoms. Gunter Grass, 'whose frolicsome black fables portray the forgotten face of history'. Barack Obama will join them in a few days. The telescope sits in a glass case in front of him, bathed in dim light and drawing the gazes of even the most jaded technology journalists present. This is one of the most important scientific instruments in history, sitting in a building dedicated to the highest achievements. Galluzzi and his colleague Giorgio Strano, curator of the exhibition, are glowing with pride.

Galileo is a bit overrated.The Oxford calculators developed the mean speed theorem centuries before himhttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford_CalculatorsOthers, such as Thomas Hariot were looking through telescopes at the moon and stars. Also William Gilbert was a pioneer of the scientific method before himreply
