Galileo’s Universe, presentation at AAC

February 20th, 2009

Steve will present a presentation entitled “Galileo’s Universe” at the March meeting of the Atlanta Astronomy Club

“It follows the early development of The Scientific Revolution where the old ideas of the universe were turned upside down and made irrelevant, thus giving birth to the field of modern astronomy. “Galileo’s Universe” will be a chronology of the lives and science of 5 very famous people who, in their time, contributed to monumental leaps forward in human understanding and thus brought about what could truly be called a revolution.”
