THE SCIENCE SHOW - The story of Galileo

Saturday 19 December, 12.05pm & Monday 21 December, 7.05pm RN

It 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.

Lots 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.
