and together they had six children

00:00:26,070 --> 00:00:29,070
Galileo being the eldest of his five
10
00:00:29,070 --> 00:00:31,490
siblings only three survived infancy
11
00:00:31,490 --> 00:00:33,810
even though his father was a devout

00:00:33,810 --> 00:00:36,090
Roman Catholic he did father three
13
00:00:36,090 --> 00:00:38,579
further children out of wedlock although
14
00:00:38,579 --> 00:00:40,890
his father was an accomplished man he
15
00:00:40,890 --> 00:00:43,199
was far from being a wealthy man and at
16
00:00:43,199 --> 00:00:45,960
each child was born finances loo ever
17
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,960
tighter at the age of eight Galileo's
18
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:50,550
family moved to Florence
19
00:00:50,550 --> 00:00:52,800
but Galileo remained in the home of Jaka
20
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,219
Pope or any until he was 10 Galileo his
21
00:00:56,219 --> 00:00:58,350
education started at his father's knee
22
00:00:58,350 --> 00:01:01,140
he was taught how to play the lute when
23
00:01:01,140 --> 00:01:02,820
he was old enough and his other siblings
24
00:01:02,820 --> 00:01:05,760
arrived at the age of 10 years he was
25
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:07,590
sent to the Kemal delese monastery at
26
00:01:07,590 --> 00:01:08,369
Milan Broza
27
00:01:08,369 --> 00:01:10,530
he briefly considered joining the
28
00:01:10,530 --> 00:01:12,600
priesthood but after some considerable
29
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,180
persuading from his father he agreed to
30
00:01:15,180 --> 00:01:17,430
enroll at the University of Pisa to
31
00:01:17,430 --> 00:01:19,409
study for his medical degree although
32
00:01:19,409 --> 00:01:22,140
his true passion was for mathematics his
33
00:01:22,140 --> 00:01:24,329
father encouraged the medicine as a
34
00:01:24,329 --> 00:01:25,950
physician and far more than a
35
00:01:25,950 --> 00:01:28,229
mathematician it was purely by accident
36
00:01:28,229 --> 00:01:30,240
that he happened upon a lecture on
37
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,520
geometry and he managed to persuade his
38
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:33,990
father into letting him study
39
00:01:33,990 --> 00:01:36,240
mathematics and natural philosophy and
40
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,390
so began galileo galilei's career in the
41
00:01:39,390 --> 00:01:42,180
sciences his first position would be as
42
00:01:42,180 --> 00:01:44,220
an instructor in the academia del R T
43
00:01:44,220 --> 00:01:45,899
del disegno in Florence
44
00:01:45,899 --> 00:01:49,229
in 1589 he would be appointed chair of
45
00:01:49,229 --> 00:01:53,670
mathematics in Pisa from 1592 to 1610 he
46
00:01:53,670 --> 00:01:55,770
took up a position of the University of
47
00:01:55,770 --> 00:01:57,649
Padua and there he taught geometry
48
00:01:57,649 --> 00:02:01,619
mechanics and astronomy Galileo would
49
00:02:01,619 --> 00:02:03,329
become known throughout history for not
50
00:02:03,329 --> 00:02:06,119
one particular finding but many he
51
00:02:06,119 --> 00:02:08,070
developed many instruments including a
52
00:02:08,070 --> 00:02:10,949
military compass his findings included
53
00:02:10,949 --> 00:02:13,650
the phases of Venus he tests determine
54
00:02:13,650 --> 00:02:16,110
or velocity he was responsible for
55
00:02:16,110 --> 00:02:17,700
making his own version of a
56
00:02:17,700 --> 00:02:20,340
telescope and as a fervent astronomer he
57
00:02:20,340 --> 00:02:21,810
was more than delighted with this
58
00:02:21,810 --> 00:02:24,360
accomplishment he was also able to
59
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,250
establish that it was the earth that
60
00:02:26,250 --> 00:02:27,989
revolved around the moon and not
61
00:02:27,989 --> 00:02:29,790
everything else revolving around the
62
00:02:29,790 --> 00:02:31,590
earth which in turn caused him great
63
00:02:31,590 --> 00:02:33,690
difficulties with the Pope and the
64
00:02:33,690 --> 00:02:36,090
Catholic Church he was tried for heresy
65
00:02:36,090 --> 00:02:38,880
by the Inquisition and sentenced to
66
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,340
imprisonment this was later commuted to
67
00:02:41,340 --> 00:02:44,099
house arrest having spent time with his
68
00:02:44,099 --> 00:02:46,890
friend Ascanio Piccolomini Galileo was
69
00:02:46,890 --> 00:02:48,780
given permission to return to his home
70
00:02:48,780 --> 00:02:53,130
near Florence in Austria in 1630 for his
71
00:02:53,130 --> 00:02:54,840
remaining years were spent there on
72
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,440
house arrest by 1638 he had gone
73
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,720
completely blind was suffering with a
74
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,090
very painful hernia and was also quite
75
00:03:03,090 --> 00:03:06,900
an insomniac on January the 8th 1642
76
00:03:06,900 --> 00:03:10,049
Galileo died having suffered a fever and
77
00:03:10,049 --> 00:03:13,680
heart palpitations ferdinando ii the
78
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,349
grand duke of tuscany wished to bury his
79
00:03:16,349 --> 00:03:18,989
body in the Basilica of Santa Callas but
80
00:03:18,989 --> 00:03:20,849
was unable to withstand the very strong
81
00:03:20,849 --> 00:03:23,400
opposition at Pope Urban the 8th so he
82
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,590
was laid to rest in a small room next to
83
00:03:25,590 --> 00:03:28,170
the novices chapel he would later be
84
00:03:28,170 --> 00:03:30,810
moved to the Basilica after the erection
85
00:03:30,810 --> 00:03:32,910
of a monument in his honor placed there
86
00:03:32,910 --> 00:03:36,170
