Galileo Galilei
Galileo Galilei (Pisa, 15 Februar 1564 – Arcetri, 8 Januar 1642) wis a Tuscan astronomer, philosopher, an pheesicist that is closely associate wi the scienteefic revolution. He haed a haund in the betterment o the prospect, a variety o astronomical observations, the first law o motion, an in supportin Copernicanism effectively. He haes been cried the "faither o modren astronomie," the "faither o modren pheesics," an the "faither of science". His experimental wark is aften conseedered complementary tae the scrievins o Francis Bacon in stablishin the modren scienteefic method. Galileo's life coincided wi that o Johannes Kepler. The wark o Galileo is conseedered tae be a signeeficant brak frae that o Aristotle. Forby, his conflict wi the Roman Catholic Kirk is taen as a great aerly exemplar o the conflict o authority an freedom o thocht, in parteecular wi science, in Wastren society.

Taewarts a re-examination o the trial o Galileo [edit]
Template:Personal essay In 1633, Galileo wis doomt by the Kirk for biblical an scientific raisons. Efterhint, science slawly pruived that Galileo’s theory wis richt.
Joël Col reconseeders the ultimate phase o the trial o the astronomer: the contradeection o his new thesis wi regaird tae the biblical verses susteint by the Kirk.
In his wark Entre Galilée et l’Église : la Bible (Atween Galileo an the Kirk: the Bible) the author analeeses the conflictin verses. He shaws, throu a comprehensive semantic study, that in the Ebreu an Greek texts, the sun daesna turn about the Yird, contrar tae whit the versions asserts. He concludes that if the translations o the Bible haed been faithfu tae the oreeginal texts, Galileo wadna hae been doomed for 'having held and believed a doctrine which is false and contrary to the divine and Holy Scripture'.[citation needit]
As an affcome o his study, he clarifees the mony debates hauden throu the centuries an ettles tae align the translations o the Bible wi their oreeginal texts an tae offeecially rehabilitate Galileo.
