Galileo.(gal-uh-LEE-oh, gal-uh-LAY-oh)
Physical Sciences and Mathematics-–-an Italian scientist of the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries; his full name was Galileo Galilei. Galileo proved that objects with different masses fall at the same velocity. One of the first persons to use a telescope to examine objects in the sky, he saw the moons of Jupiter, the mountains on the moon of the Earth and Sunspots. Authorities of the Church back then forced Galileo to renounce his belief in the model of the solar system proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus.
   Galileo had to assert that the earth stands still, with the sun revolving around it. A famous legend holds that Galileo, after making this public declaration about a motionless earth to satisfy the ignorant 'religiots' of the day, on his way out of their kangaroo court, muttered."Nevertheless, it does move."
   His history (and more in.Foxes Book of Martyrs.Chapter 5, page 1):
...1616  A committee of advisors to the Inquisition declares that holding the view that the Sun is the center of the universe or the earth moves is absurd and formally heretical.
...1616 Cardinal Bellarmine warns Galileo not to hold, teach, or defend Copernican theory. According to an unsigned transcript found in the Inquisition file in 1633, Galileo is also enjoined from discussing his theory, either orally or in writing (welcome to world controllers).
...1624 Galileo goes to Rome. He has six audiences with the Pope and meets with influential cardinals. Pope Urban VIII tells Galileo that he can discuss Copernican theory, so long as he treats it as an hypothesis. (welcome to world controllers where you can't do a thing without permission).
...1632 Based on the special commission's report, the Pope refers Galileo's case to the Roman Inquisition.
...1632 Galileo receives a summons to appear before the Inquisition. Galileo asks that his trial be moved to Florence.
...1633 Galileo is interrogated before the Inquisition. For over two weeks he is imprisoned in an apartment in the Inquisition building. Galileo agrees to plead guilty to a lesser charge in exchange for a more lenient sentence. He declares that the Copernican case was made too strongly in his book Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems and offers to refute it in another book.
...1633 Galileo is sentenced to prison for an indefinite term.  Seven of ten cardinals presiding at his trial sign the sentencing order. Galileo signs a formal recantation. Galileo is allowed to serve his term under house arrest in the home of the archbishop of Siena.
...1820 Papal Inquisition abolished.
...1992 Catholic Church formally admits that Galileo's views on the solar system are correct.
"In questions of science the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual." ...Galileo Galilei, 1564-1642.
