In May 1609, Galileo received from Paris a letter from the Frenchman Jacques Badovere, one of his former students, who confirmed an insistent rumor: the existence of a telescope that allows viewing distant objects. Built in Holland by the lens manufacturer Hans Lippershey, this telescope would have already made it possible to see stars invisible to the naked eye. With this unique description, Galileo, who no longer taught Cosimo II de Medici, built his first telescope.]]> 2021-03-22 03:40:08 UTC https://padlet.com/dereckbetancourth19/xc16n519tzw1c4ts/wish/1336033812 dereckbetancourth19 https://padlet.com/dereckbetancourth19/xc16n519tzw1c4ts/wish/1336034113 Discovering your calling
Although his father wanted Galileo to dedicate himself to medicine, in 1583 Galileo began in mathematics at the hands of Ostilio Ricci, a friend of the family, a student of Tartaglia. Ricci had a habit, rare at the time, of linking theory to experimental practice.
Attracted by the work of Euclid, without any interest in medicine and still less in scholastic disputes and Aristotelian philosophy, Galileo redirects his studies towards mathematics. Since then, he feels like a follower of Pythagoras, Plato and Archimedes, and opposed to Aristotelianism.]]> 2021-03-22 03:40:18 UTC https://padlet.com/dereckbetancourth19/xc16n519tzw1c4ts/wish/1336034113 dereckbetancourth19 https://padlet.com/dereckbetancourth19/xc16n519tzw1c4ts/wish/1336034879 Galileo Galilei was an Italian astronomer, engineer, 6 7 philosopher, mathematician8 and physicist, closely associated with the Scientific Revolution. An eminent man of the Renaissance, he showed interest in almost all the sciences and arts (music, literature, painting). His achievements include the improvement of the telescope, a wide variety of astronomical observations, the first law of motion, and decisive support for the Copernicus Revolution. He has been regarded as the father of modern astronomy, the 'father of modern physics and the father of science.]]> 2021-03-22 03:40:43 UTC https://padlet.com/dereckbetancourth19/xc16n519tzw1c4ts/wish/1336034879 dereckbetancourth19 https://padlet.com/dereckbetancourth19/xc16n519tzw1c4ts/wish/1336036286 Galileo Galilei is important because he formulated the first laws about motion. In the field of astronomy, it is worth highlighting the empirical confirmation of the heliocentric model of the universe, which he achieved thanks to his telescopic observations.]]> 2021-03-22 03:41:25 UTC https://padlet.com/dereckbetancourth19/xc16n519tzw1c4ts/wish/1336036286 dereckbetancourth19 https://padlet.com/dereckbetancourth19/xc16n519tzw1c4ts/wish/1336038608 Childhood and early years
Galileo, born in Pisa when it belonged to the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, was the eldest of seven siblings, the son of Giulia Ammannati and the Florentine musician and mathematician Vincenzo Galilei. The Galilei, a family of the lower nobility who made their living thanks to trade, were in charge of Galileo's education until he was 10 years old, at which age he passed into the care of a religious neighbor named Jacobo Borhini when his parents moved to Florence: Through his mediation, little Galileo entered the convent of Santa María de Vallombrosa in Florence and received a pious training that led him to consider entering religious life, something that his father disliked.]]> 2021-03-22 03:42:37 UTC https://padlet.com/dereckbetancourth19/xc16n519tzw1c4ts/wish/1336038608 dereckbetancourth19 https://padlet.com/dereckbetancourth19/xc16n519tzw1c4ts/wish/1336081911 2021-03-22 04:07:10 UTC https://padlet.com/dereckbetancourth19/xc16n519tzw1c4ts/wish/1336081911
