Michaelangelica Posted December 21, 2009 Report Posted December 21, 2009 GalileoTHE SCIENCE SHOW - The story of GalileoSaturday 19 December, 12.05pm & Monday 21 December, 7.05pm RNIt was just 400 years ago that Galileo established modern science. His observations of the moon and planets showed a world that shook the Church and everyone’s assumptions of creation.In this Science Show we visit Italy and hear from writers such as Dava Sobel on the great astronomer and his battle to be understood.Science Showhttp://mpegmedia.abc.net.au/rn/podcast/2009/12/ssw_20091219_1227.mp3Lots of stuff you already know, but nicely said.I didn't realise he was the first to do scientific experiments. Interesting that the modern Catholic Church has so far ignored Global Warming. Quote
