Informazioni su questo audiolibro
Galileo Galilei, the pioneering Italian astronomer, physicist, and engineer, is celebrated as the "Father of Modern Science" for his transformative contributions to the Scientific Revolution. Born in 1564 in Pisa, Italy, Galileo's inquisitive mind led him to question established doctrines and explore the universe through observation and experimentation. This biography delves into his development of the telescope, which enabled groundbreaking discoveries such as the moons of Jupiter, the phases of Venus, and the rugged lunar surface. His support for the heliocentric model, asserting that the Earth orbits the Sun, challenged the geocentric teachings of the Catholic Church, leading to his trial and house arrest. Galileo's dedication to empirical evidence and the scientific method laid the foundation for modern physics and astronomy. This book explores his life, his scientific achievements, and his enduring legacy as a visionary who dared to look beyond accepted beliefs, forever changing our understanding of the cosmos.
