Galileo Galilei (Italian pronunciation: [ɡaliˈlɛːo ɡaliˈlɛi]; 15 February 1564 – 8 January 1642), was an Italian physicist, mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher who played a major role in the Scientific Revolution. His achievements include improvements to the telescope and consequent astronomical observations and support for Copernicanism. Galileo has been called the "father of modern observational astronomy", the "father of modern physics", the "father of science", and "the Father of Modern Science".
His contributions to observational astronomy include the telescopic confirmation of the phases of Venus, the discovery of the four largest satellites of Jupiter (named the Galilean moons in his honour), and the observation and analysis of sunspots. Galileo also worked in applied science and technology, inventing an improved military compass and other instruments.
Galileo's championing of heliocentrism was controversial within his lifetime, when most subscribed to either geocentrism or the Tychonic system. He met with opposition from astronomers, who doubted heliocentrism due to the absence of an observed stellar parallax. The matter was investigated by the Roman Inquisition in 1615, and they concluded that it could only be supported as a possibility, not as an established fact. Galileo later defended his views in Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems, which appeared to attack Pope Urban VIII and thus alienated him and the Jesuits, who had both supported Galileo up until this point. He was tried by the Inquisition, found "vehemently suspect of heresy", forced to recant, and spent the rest of his life under house arrest. It was while Galileo was under house arrest that he wrote one of his finest works, Two New Sciences. Here he summarized the work he had done some forty years earlier, on the two sciences now called kinematics and strength of materials.
Galileo's head was on the block
The crime was looking up for truth
And as the bombshells of my daily fears explode
I try to trace them to my youth
And then you had to bring up reincarnation
Over a couple of beers the other night
And now I'm serving time for mistakes
Made by another in another lifetime
How long till my soul gets it right?
Can any human being ever reach that kind of light?
I call on the resting soul of Galileo
King of night vision, King of insight
And then I think about my fear of motion
Which I never could explain
Some other fool across the ocean years ago
Must have crashed his little airplane
How long till my soul gets it right?
Can any human being ever reach that kind of light?
I call on the resting soul of Galileo
King of night vision, King of insight
I'm not making a joke, you know me
I take everything so seriously
If we wait for the time till all souls get it right
Then at least, I know there'll be no nuclear annihilation
In my lifetime, I'm still not right
I offer thanks to those before me
That's all I've got to say
'Cause maybe you squandered big bucks in your lifetime
Now I have to pay
But then again it feels like some sort of inspiration
To let the next life off the hook
But she'll say, "Look what I had to overcome from my last life
I think, I'll write a book"
How long till my soul gets it right?
Can any human being ever reach the highest light?
Except for Galileo, God rest his soul
King of night vision, King of insight
How long
How long
In the year of fourteen ninety two
When Columbus sailed the ocean blue
Had he landed on India's shore
You might never have come to knock on my door
Who needs a rhyme or a reason
Some dreams were made to find
So I know that I must follow
Ask me just how much I love you
You are starlight, I'm Galileo
Even on the darkest night, oh
I will find the shining light of our love
Through the rain clouds thundering nights
Mr. Franklin stood there holding his kite
He was crazy, always pressing his luck
But he got what he wanted when lightning struck, yeah
Who needs a rhyme or a reason
Some dreams were made to find
So I know that I must follow
Ask me just how much I love you
You are starlight, I'm Galileo
Even on the darkest night, oh
I will find the shining light of our love
Ask me just how much I love you
You are starlight, I'm Galileo
Even on the darkest night, oh
I will find the shining light of our love
I believe in you
And the special love we could share
And maybe one day darling you'll turn around
And all I really know is I will be there
Ask me just how much I love you
You are starlight, I'm Galileo
Even on the darkest night, oh
I will find the shining light of our love
Ask me just how much I love you
You are starlight, I'm Galileo
Even on the darkest night, oh
I will find the shining light
I will find the shining light of our love
Ask me just how much I love you
I'm Galileo
Even on the darkest night, oh
I will find the shining light of our love
Ask me just how much I love you
Galileo fell in love
As a Galilean boy
And he wondered what in heaven
who invented such a joy
But the question got the better
of his scientific mind
And to his blind and dying day
He looked up high and often sighed
And sometimes cried
Who puts the rainbow in the sky?
Who lights the stars at night?
Who dreamt up someone so divine?
Someone like you and made them mine?
Love can make you ask some
funny questions now and then
But just remember the alternatives
For I remember when I was lonely
And unhappy and my lips were cold as ice
But you kissed me and good heavens
now I'm here in paradise
So if ever I am not kissing you
or looking in your eyes
I won't be blind and I won't cry
I'll look up and gladly sigh,
and thank the guy
Who puts the rainbow in the sky
Who lights the stars at night
Who dreamt up someone so divine
Someone like you and made them mine
A man sat on his roof and looked at the stars.
Soon he could see a truth in the stars,
and he thought, "I'd like to tell everybody."
So he went to the village,
and he said to the people,
"Look, see what I found."
But no-one listened.
So he went back to his house,
and sat on the roof and looked at the stars.
After a while he was still there
and the stars were still there
and he thought,
"The truth is still there
and I'd still like to share it."
So he went back to the village,
Galileo fell in love as a Galilean boy,
And he wondered what in heaven who invented such a joy.
But the question got the better of his scientific mind,
And to his blind and dying gaze,
He looked up high and often sighed,
And sometimes cried,
Who puts the rainbow in the sky?
Who lights the stars at night?
Who dreamt up someone so divine?
Someone like you and made them mine?
Love can make you ask some funny questions now and then.
But just remember the alternatives for I remember when
I was lonely and unhappy,
And my lips were cold as ice.
But you kissed me, and good heavens,
Now I'm here in paradise,
So if ever I'm not kissing you or looking in your eyes.
I won't be blind, and I won't cry.
I'll look up high and gladly sigh,
And thank the guy,
Who puts the rainbow in the sky?
Who lights the stars at night?
Who dreamt up someone so divine?
Someone like you and made them mine?
