Galileo Galilei was born on February 15, 1564. He was an Italian scientist who formulated the basic law of falling bodies, which he verified by careful measurements. He died in arcetri (near Florence) on January 8, 1642. Today, he is regarded as “the father of modern science”, but during his lifetime he was condemned as a heretic for contracting the Roman Catholic Church’s belief that the earth was the center of a perfect universe. Galileo, as he is known was a philosopher, astronomer and mathematician.
However, Galileo is also known for the numerous scientific inventions he made during his lifetime. These included his famous telescope, His initial version only magnified 8x but was soon refined to 20x magnification. It had a convex objective lens and a concave eyepiece in a long tube. A Galilean Thermometer is a thermometer made of a sealed glass cylinder containing a clear liquid and several glass vessels of varying density. Essentially and modified telescope, Galileo’s microscope used a bi-concave eyepiece and bi-convex objective lens to provide up to 30 times magnification.
My favorite invention is the most famous invention, the telescope. It could allow people to observe changes and movement in space. Galileo used his telescope and made many discoveries in the solar system. And here are some examples of the discoveries: 1. Craters and mountains on the moon. It turns out that the moon is not smooth. 2. The phases of Venus. Venus also has phases like the moon. 3. Jupiter’s moons. It has four moons. 4. The stars of milky way. It is made up of thousands of individual stars. Not just a band of misty light.
If I could invent something, I would invent a Planting robot (Nature-bot). When it plants, it would first find the right environment for the plants. Next it would spray water on one row of the same kind of plant. Then, it would suck up some of the sun’s rays and provide the sunlight to the plants. And finally, it would spin its body and spread-out fresh air. With the help of the robot, the plants would provide more oxygen for people, bring in nature, provide food for organisms, and prepare for the future.
Galileo Galilei is an Italian inventor who lived from February 15, 1564 until January 8, 1642 that invented tools that we use today (The Thermometer, The Telescope, and The Microscope) to help people learn, observe, discover, improve, and give claim, evidence, and reasoning for arguments. These inventions had changed and improved people’s lives. Today, we known him as “the father of modern science”
