Galileo Galilei ; 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." Stephen Hawking says, "Galileo, perhaps more than any other single person, was responsible for the birth of modern science." The motion of uniformly accelerated objects, taught in nearly all high school and introductory college physics courses, was studied by Galileo as the subject of kinematics. 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 Copernicanism was controversial within his lifetime, when a large majority of philosophers and astronomers still subscribed to the geocentric view that the Earth is at the centre of the universe. After 1610, when he began publicly supporting the heliocentric view, which placed the Sun at the centre of the universe, he met with bitter ...

The Galilean moons are the four moons of Jupiter discovered by Galileo Galilei 400 years ago, in January 1610. Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto are the largest of the many moons of Jupiter. In fact, they are among the most massive objects in the Solar System. Ganymede, is larger than Mercury while the other three are larger than any of the dwarf planets. Galileo's discovery revoked the geocentric theory in which everything orbits around the Earth. Ganymede, Europa and Io participate in a 1:2:4 orbital resonance around Jupiter. It is possible to see view of Jupiter and its four main moons from any telescope on Earth.
Galileo Galilei was an astromer who died for science. He went against the teachings of his time and because of this, the church put him to death. He revealed that the earth was not in the center of the universe, heavy objects do not fall faster than lighter ones, and he created the first refracting telescope. Because of this, he was clearly ahead of his time in the realms of science and astronomy.
More on this episode: www.bbc.co.uk Michael Mosley follows in Galileo's footsteps as he learns how to make a telescope lens. He takes a flat piece of glass and an artillery ball to a Venetian lens maker to find out how Galileo turned these raw materials into a lens fit for his telescope.

In der Nähe des Planeten sah er vier Lichtpunkte; sie änderten ihre Position am Himmel Nacht für Nacht, wie auch Jupiter selbst. Es war wie ein langsames, kosmisches Ballett von Monden rund um den Planeten. Die vier Lichtpunkte sollten später bekannt werden als die Galilei´schen Monde des Jupiter. Was fand Galilei sonst noch? Die Phasen der Venus! Ebenso wie der Mond zeigt die Venus ein Anwachsen und Abnehmen, von der schmalen Sichel zur voll beleuchteten Kugel. Außerdem: Seltsame "Henkel" an beiden Seiten des Saturn.

The lecture charts the development of optical telescopes since then, the subtle ideas that are greatly improving their performance and how they are bringing ever-further parts of the universe within our reach. - Gresham College Ian Morison - Gresham Professor of Astronomy Ian Morison made his first telescope at the age of 12 with lenses given to him by his optician. Having studied Physics, Maths and Astronomy at Oxford, he became a radio astronomer at the Jodrell Bank Observatory and teaches Astronomy and Cosmology at the University of Manchester. Over 25 years he has also taught Observational Astronomy to many hundreds of adult students in the North West of England. An active amateur optical astronomer, he is a council member and past president of the Society for Popular Astronomy in the United Kingdom. At Jodrell Bank he was a designer of the 217 KM MERLIN array and has coordinated the Project Phoenix SETI Observations using the Lovell Radio Telescope. He contributes astronomy articles and reviews for New Scientist and Astronomy Now, and produces a monthly sky guide on the Observatory's website.

The GRS is a giant storm in Jupiter's atmosphere that has been remarkably stable. In fact, it may have been observed as early as the 1660s. During the intervening centuries, the GRS was not just the largest, but also the only red spot ever seen on Jupiter. That situation changed when a formerly white storm turned brown in late 2005, and then red in early 2006. And yet another red spot appeared in spring 2008. After such consistency for hundreds of years, Jupiter appears to be breaking out in red spots. Join us for a look at this historic case of planetary measles. • hubblesite.org --- Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest planet within the Solar System. It is a gas giant with a mass slightly less than one-thousandth that of the Sun but is two and a half times the mass of all of the other planets in our Solar System combined. Jupiter is classified as a gas giant along with Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Together, these four planets are sometimes referred to as the Jovian planets.

For the very first time, nearly 400 years ago, Galileo Galilei, was able to see the sky using a telescope just like this. Thats when the physicist and philosopher, discovered the earth revolves around the sun. Ileana Chinnici Asturm 2009 Commissioner "The Church has played an important role in the development of astronomy, because, in fact, many astronomers of the past were men of the church, which belonged to religious institutions. Despite the conflict with Galileo, many churchmen continued to study the cosmos and nature. " To mark the International Year of Astronomy, the Vatican is presenting the tools that have accompanied the evolution of this science and is paying special tribute to Galileo. The first instruments used to observe the sky were only able to measure the angle of the stars. But in the early 17th century, Galileo, used the telescope to observe the stars and revolutionized astronomy. The advance of technology also led to improved maps of the sky but it wasnt until1801 when a full representation of all the constellations was possible. This exhibit allows visitors to see them all together for the first time. Ileana Chinnici Asturm 2009 Commissioner "Through book of that time period, we can see the changes gradually, the conception of the world moving from a system which saw the earth the center of the universe to another in which the Sun is the center of the universe and the rest planets rotate around it.

Explorations this time tells the story of our place in space. Our desire to explore space began with our eyes. The more we saw, the more it fired our ambitions. Experimenting with lenses in his native Florence, Italian Galileo Galilei developed a powerful telescope. Suddenly, planets like Jupiter and its moons, 400 million miles away were at our fingertips We discovered the universe was greater than wed ever imagined. Our sense of place in the cosmos changed forever as telescopes exposed the universes most amazing secrets. Now, with the space telescope Hubble we can see almost 200 trillion times further than Galileos first telescope. And that has made us ask new questions.

Die neuesten Aufnahmen des Weltraumteleskops. --- • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com --- Das Hubble-Weltraumteleskop (engl. Hubble Space Telescope, kurz HST) ist ein Weltraumteleskop für sichtbares Licht, Ultraviolett- und Infrarotstrahlung, das die Erde in einer Höhe von 590 Kilometern innerhalb von 97 Minuten einmal umkreist. Das Teleskop entstand aus der Zusammenarbeit der NASA und der ESA und wurde nach dem US-Astronomen Edwin Hubble benannt. Das HST wurde 1990 mit der Space-Shuttle-Mission STS-31 gestartet und am nächsten Tag aus dem Frachtraum der Discovery ausgesetzt. Das Hubble-Weltraumteleskop war das erste von vier Weltraumteleskopen, welche von der NASA im Rahmen des Great Observatory Programms geplant wurden.

In 1609, Galileo Galilei first looked through his telescope, and changed science forever. His discoveries provided solid evidence that disproved the prevailing belief that the Earth was the center of the Universe. Throughout history, scientists such as Johannes Kepler and Sir Isaac Newton further revolutionized the design of the telescope. To celebrate the International Year of Astronomy, Sky-Watcher is proud to present the commemorative edition of Newton's telescope - Heritage. Copyright Suzhou Synta Optical Technology Co., LTD.

In der Atacama-Wüste Chiles steht eines der besten astronomischen Augen Europas - das Very Large Telescope VLT. Wenn es Nacht wird in Chile, erwacht der Cerro Paranal zum Leben. Die Sonne brennt gnadenlos vom tiefblauen Himmel, die Landschaft erinnert an Aufnahmen vom Planeten Mars: Ockerfarbene, sanft geschwungene Hügel übersät von Gesteinsbrocken, kein Strauch, kein Halm - Wüste so weit das Auge reicht. Die Atacama im Norden Chiles ist gewiss kein gastlicher Ort zum Leben - aber in dieser Wüste ist der gut 2600 m hohe Berg Cerro Paranal dem Himmel ganz nahe ... Auf dem Cerro Paranal thront das Very Large Telescope, das "sehr große Teleskop". Das VLT ist eine Sternwarte, die im wesentlichen aus vier großen Spiegelteleskopen besteht. Das VLT wird von ESO betrieben, der großen europäischen Astronomie-Organisation. Weiterlesen: www.weltderphysik.de .
Exactly 400 years ago today, Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei introduced his telescope to the world. Google marked the date with a picture of it on its homepage logo. Galileos creation laid the groundwork for breakthroughs in astronomy. He was able to confirm Copernicus earlier theory from almost a century before that the sun, and not the earth, was at the center of the solar system. His findings quickly found opposition from the Church, being accused as a heretic for suspicious interpretation of the Bible and he spent most of his latter years under house arrest. In 1992, John Paul II rehabilitated Galileo and in 2000 issued a formal apology for the process against him. RS

Hubble Space Telescope, kurz HST) ist ein Weltraumteleskop für sichtbares Licht, Ultraviolett- und Infrarotstrahlung, das die Erde in einer Höhe von 590 Kilometern innerhalb von 97 Minuten einmal umkreist. Das Teleskop entstand aus der Zusammenarbeit der NASA und der ESA und wurde nach dem US-Astronomen Edwin Hubble benannt. Das HST wurde 1990 mit der Space-Shuttle-Mission STS-31 gestartet und am nächsten Tag aus dem Frachtraum der Discovery ausgesetzt. Das Hubble-Weltraumteleskop war das erste von vier Weltraumteleskopen, welche von der NASA im Rahmen des „Great Observatory Programms geplant wurden. Die anderen drei sind Compton Gamma Ray Observatory, Chandra X-Ray Observatory und Spitzer Space Telescope.
