Galileo was one of the first modern scienists.He was born in Pi Sa,Itali,in 1564.He studied

phylosophy,mathematics and astronomy.He was very interested in the way the earth and other planets

move around the sun.He was famous for his study of how things fall.Before,people used to think that

heavy things always fell faster than light things.He did experiments about this problem and discovered

that both heavy things and light things fell at the same speed.Many religious people did not agree with

him because his scientific ideas were different from theirs.He even went to prison for a while;but no

one could stop him from thinking.He continued to look for scientific answers.
