Podcasts about Galileo Galilei

The goddess of the dawn has given millions of Americans a rare treat the past couple of years: brilliant displays of the northern lights in regions where they’re seldom seen. Today, we know that these colorful curtains of light are powered by storms on the Sun. Bigger storms expand the viewing area. But in centuries past, cultures around the globe created their own explanations. In Scandinavia, for example, the northern lights might have represented Bifrost, the “rainbow bridge” that connected Earth to Asgard, the home of the gods. In some of the islands of Scotland, the lights represented a pair of chieftains fighting for the hand of a “merry dancer.” In southern England, they were considered omens of misfortune. Some saw the lights as clashing swords; red lights were streamers of blood. During an intense outburst in March 1716, at the end of a civil war, people ran into the streets in their nightclothes, and some thought it was judgment day. One writer said that some “read in its glaring visage, the fate of nations and the fall of kingdoms.” The name for the northern lights – the aurora borealis – was bestowed in 1619 by Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei. Aurora was the Roman goddess of the dawn. Boreas was the Greek god of storms and the north wind – one of the namesakes of the always beautiful, sometimes frightening northern lights. More about the aurora tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

First up on the podcast, a company is using whole brains—maintained with specialized life support—to study new drugs. Freelance science journalist Sara Reardon joins host Sarah Crespi to talk about the advantages and ethical considerations of keeping brains intact but inactive. Next on the show, when some lizards lose their tails, they might regenerate new ones. But what happens to the old tail? Whereas a castoff lizard tail quickly decomposes, this isn't the case for the castoff tube feet of the sea cucumber, Psolus fabricii. Sara Miller Jobson, a Ph.D. student at the Memorial University of Newfoundland, describes how these “living” limbs healed after amputation and then survived for more than 3 years in just seawater. Their survival in such simple conditions, while maintaining a complex tissue with a functioning immune response, could make amputated tube feet a useful model system for studying regeneration. Finally this week, the first in our book series on science biographies. Books host Angela Saini talks with historian Anna-Luna Post about her recent book, Galileo's Fame: Science, Credibility, and Memory in the Seventeenth Century, which explores how fame shaped the scientific fortunes of Galileo Galilei.

Mit welchen Methoden beobachten wir eigentlich den Weltraum? Wir starten eine Themenreihe in unserem Podcast und sehen uns die Werkzeuge der Astronomie an. Davor sprechen wir in den Astronews über die zum Aufnahmezeitpunkt laufende Artemis 2 – Mission, die mit der Rückkehr der Astronaut:innen am 10. April 2026 nun auch erfolgreich zu Ende gegangen ist. Die längste Zeit der Menschheitsgeschichte bis zum Ende des 16. Jahrhunderts konnte man den (allerdings perfekt dunklen) Nachthimmel nur mit freiem Auge beobachten. Trotzdem gab es ganze Observatorien wie Stonehenge, das jahrtausendealte Sonnenobservatorium von Goseck und – als letztes seiner Art – Sternjeborg mit seinen astrometrischen Präzsesionsinstrumenten, dass sich der berühmte Astronom Tycho Brahe gegen Ende des 16. Jahrhunderts erbauen ließ. Mit Instrumenten wie dem Quadrant, dem Sextant oder der Amillarsphäre (Astrolabium) wurden die Positionen der Sterne bestimmt und vermessen. Anfang des 17 Jahrhunderts wurde dann das Fernrohr erfunden, Galileo Galilei verbesserte es und war der erste, der damit die Krater des Mondes, die 4 großen Jupitermonde und die „mondartigen“ Phasen der Venus entdeckte – und dass die Milchstraße aus unzähligen Sternen besteht. Fernrohre und Ferngläser eröffneten der Astronomie einen völlig neuen Blick auf das Universum – auf Objekte, die ohne optische Hilfsmittel unsichtbar blieben. Später entwickelten auch Johannes Kepler, Isaak Newton und viele weitere immer bessere Versionen von Teleskopen, und die Instrumente wurden immer größer. Die Erfindung der Fotografie revolutionierte nochmals die Himmelsbeobachtung: nicht nur, dass man nun die Beobachtungen objektiv festhalten konnte, durch Langzeitbelichtung war es nun möglich, bisher unsichtbar bleibende lichtschwache Objekte abzubilden: die Grenzen der menschlichen Sehkraft wurden damit überschritten, und auch heute noch zeigen Fotos mit selbst einfachen Kameras (wie Smartphonekameras) viel mehr, als das menschliche Auge sehen kann.

Wednesday, March 25, 2026   In today's episode of Astronomy Daily, Anna and Avery cover six major stories from the last 24 hours in space and astronomy — including two landmark NASA announcements that could reshape the future of human space exploration.   Story 1: NASA Cancels Lunar Gateway — Pivots to $20 Billion Moon Base NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman announced at the agency's 'Ignition Day' event that the Lunar Gateway orbital space station has been paused, with resources redirected toward a phased $20 billion base on the lunar surface. The three-phase plan runs from 2026 to beyond 2032 and involves international partners including JAXA, the Italian Space Agency, and the Canadian Space Agency.

Epizoda osvetljuje prelomno vlogo Galilea Galileija pri oblikovanju sodobne znanosti skozi preplet tehnoloških inovacij in matematičnega razmišljanja. Pogovor pojasnjuje, kako je Galilej z izpopolnitvijo daljnogleda in opazovanjem Lune nepopravljivo zamajal aristotelsko predstavo o popolnosti nebesnih teles. Ključni poudarek je na njegovi matematizaciji narave, kjer geometrijski zakoni postanejo resnično ogrodje materialnega sveta. Epizoda podrobno opiše tudi njegov epistemološki spor s Cerkvijo, ki je v matematiku videla grožnjo teološki avtoriteti nad resnico. Skozi analizo poskusov v hišnem priporu zaključimo, kako je Galilej z metodo izločanja subjektivnih zaznav postavil temelje za objektivno fiziko. Izvorni članek: Galileo Galilei – matematika kot nevidno okostje realnosti Dialog je ustvarjen s pomočjo orodja NotebookLM.

In episode 51, we review Galileo Galilei published by Pink Troubadour and Captstone Games. But first! We chat about what is bringing us joy: Bottle Imp, Wondrous Creatures, Evacuation, and Board Game Homie weekend at the beach.Galileo Galilei is a Euro-style game for 1-4 players where players take on the role of historical astronomers looking to the night sky for celestial objects while navigating the Inquisition as their suspicions rise with each astronomer's discovery, lecture, and written work. The science, history, and mechanics blend elegantly in this game, and all four homies agree it is worthy of space on the shelf (especially if you're a science nerd.)Get to know us @ https://lnk.bio/BoardGameHomies

To the eye alone, the Pleiades cluster looks like a small dipper of about seven stars – a few more if you have nice, dark skies. But when Galileo Galilei looked at it with his first small telescope, he saw a few dozen stars. It was one of the first indications that there’s far more to the universe than meets the eye. You can share Galileo’s view with a basic pair of binoculars – no telescope required. They’re especially helpful tonight because of the Moon. It passes through the outskirts of the cluster, so it points the way. But the moonlight makes it tougher to see the stars. The Pleiades is a family of perhaps a couple of thousand stars. The stars were all born together, from the same cloud of gas and dust. That makes the cluster a good laboratory. Since the stars all started with the same mix of elements, any differences among them are the result of their evolution – changes within the stars themselves. That helps astronomers understand how all stars change over the eons. The cluster probably is a little more than a hundred million years old. That means it’s completed only about half an orbit around the center of the galaxy. During that time, it’s lost many of its original stars. And before it can complete one full orbit from its current location, it’s likely to evaporate – pulled apart by the gravitational tug of the rest of the galaxy.

By Paul Sloane, who is the author of The Art of Unexpected Solutions: Using Lateral Thinking to Find Breakthroughs, published by Kogan Page In a cathedral in Pisa, a young Galileo Galilei observed a swinging incense chandelier. While others saw a mundane ritual, Galileo saw a variable. Using his pulse to time the oscillations, he saw that a pendulum's period remains constant regardless of its arc. He deduced that the period of a pendulum was constant and not dependent on the weight of the pendulum or the initial displacement. It was dependent only on the length of the rope. Building a Question-Rich Corporate Culture, Unexpected Solutions In 1943 naval engineer Richard James was working on the problem of how to stabilize sensitive ship equipment at sea. He was using coiled springs and accidentally knocked one off a shelf. He was fascinated to see that it seemed to walk down and come to rest in a standing position. Where others might have seen a nuisance, James saw a kinetic possibility, leading to the invention of the Slinky. These stories are often relegated to the realm of "happy accidents." In reality, they are the results of a specific cognitive discipline: curiosity. In the modern corporate landscape, curiosity is frequently treated as a secondary trait, a "nice-to-have" eclipsed by the "must-haves" of efficiency, specialized expertise, and immediate ROI. However, this prioritization is wrong. Curiosity is the primary engine of innovation and the most effective hedge against institutional stagnation. To remain competitive, leaders should switch from a culture of "knowing" to a culture of "inquiring." The Institutional Suppression of Inquiry From early education through professional development, we are conditioned to value the definitive answer over the provocative question. Success is often measured by the speed at which we can provide a solution, rather than the depth at which we understand the problem. In many organizations, this leads to a "stick to what you know" mantra. When an organization prioritizes conformity over curiosity, it inadvertently creates blind spots. The Four Pillars of Individual Curiosity Curiosity is not an innate gift but a professional muscle that requires deliberate conditioning. To lead a curious organization, individuals shoould adopt four specific behaviors: 1. Challenging the "Obvious" Assumptions are the silent killers of innovation. They act as mental shortcuts that prevent us from seeing new paths. Consider George de Mestral, the inventor of Velcro. He could have viewed the burrs stuck to his dog's fur as a minor irritation. Instead, his curiosity led him to study the mechanics of their adhesion. Rigorously audit your "legacy" processes. Ask: "If we were starting this company today, would we still do it this way?" 1. Destigmatizing Experimentation Innovation is a non-linear process characterized by trial and error. Thomas Edison famously viewed his 10,000 failed attempts at the lightbulb not as setbacks, but as the successful elimination of non-viable options. Reframe "failure" as "data collection." If an experiment doesn't yield the intended result but provides a new insight, it is a net gain for the company. 1. Intellectual Humility The greatest barrier to learning is the illusion of knowledge. Intellectual humility involves acknowledging the limits of your expertise and remaining open to insights from any level of the hierarchy. Adopt a beginner's mindset. Approach high-level strategic meetings with the intent to learn something new from the junior staff in the room rather than just delivering directives. 1. Strategic Divergence Curiosity thrives on variety. When we only read industry journals and speak to immediate colleagues, our thinking becomes derivative. Deliberately seek out "intellectual friction." Read outside your field, attend conferences in unrelated industries, and engage with people whose perspectives challenge your own. Engineering an Organizational Ecosystem Individua...

Think of science's most momentous developments in the 20th century — Einstein's theory of relativity, quantum physics, finding evidence of black holes. If you trace the chain of discoveries that led to these breakthroughs back far enough, you'll end up with the Italian astronomer and physicist Galileo Galilei. Theoretical physicist Carlo Rovelli says we can learn a lot from Galileo today. He explains how 400 years ago, the renowned inventor was discovering new facts about the Universe to understand ourselves better — and so are we.

Hoy hablaremos de la historia de las dietas y de los gimnasios, porque es enero y todos queremos bajar los kilitos extras de las fiestas navideñas; también del descubrimiento de Galileo Galilei de las lunas de Júpiter, que fue un día como hoy, y de La montaña mágica de Thomas Mann, una novela que nos tienta con la posibilidad de posponer la vida real. Cuatro temas distintos, una misma pregunta: qué hacemos con el cuerpo y con el tiempo, entre rutinas, medidas, hábitos… y ganas de empezar de nuevo.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 5, 2026 is: marginalia • mahr-juh-NAY-lee-uh • noun Marginalia is a plural noun that refers to notes or other marks written in the margins of a text, and also to nonessential matters or items. // I loved flipping through my literature textbooks to find the marginalia left behind by former students. // She found the documentary's treatment of not only the major events but also the marginalia of Scandinavian history fascinating. See the entry > Examples: “Marginalia have a long history: Leonardo da Vinci famously scribbled thoughts about gravity years before Galileo Galilei published his magnum opus on the subject; the discovery was waiting under our noses in the margins of Leonardo's Codex Arundel.” — Brianne Kane, Scientific American, 19 Sept. 2025 Did you know? In the introduction to his essay titled “Marginalia,” Edgar Allan Poe wrote: “In getting my books, I have always been solicitous of an ample margin; this not so much through any love of the thing in itself, however agreeable, as for the facility it affords me of penciling suggested thoughts, agreements and differences of opinion, or brief critical comments in general.” At the time the essay was first published in 1844, marginalia was only a few decades old despite describing something—notes in the margin of a text—that had existed for centuries. An older word, apostille (or apostil), refers to a single annotation made in a margin, but that word is rarely used today. Even if you are not, like Poe, simply ravenous for scribbling in your own books, you likely know marginalia as a telltale sign that someone has read a particular volume before you.

In episode 46, we review two expansions: The White Castle: Matcha published by Devir and Wyrmspan: Dragon Academy published by Stonemaier Games. But, first! We chat about what is bringing us joy: Yokai Septet, 12 Chip Trick, Sausage Sizzle!, and Galileo Galilei. The White Castle: Matcha introduces the tea ceremony to the game and a new means to influence the court with new members of your clan: Geishas. This includes taking actions in order to proceed along the Path of Tea; progress far enough along this path, and your Geisha will earn a spot in the Tea House, granting your clan additional influence within the court of Himeji. This expansion incorporates a suite of new game spaces, cards, player boards, and workers. However, one of the pivotal changes that Angela isn't a huge fan of is the addition of another die, bringing the total actions a player takes from three in the base game to four in a round.Wyrmspan: Dragon Academy introduces more of everything from the base game, from caverns, to dragons, to guilds, to objectives. However, the most appealing changes (in our homie opinions) are the addition of the round tracker and fledgling dragons. When a player passes out of a round, they get a choice of bonuses to take into the next round, rather than the flat 6 coins you previously got in the base game. Fret not, as there is still an option for those 6 coins if you get there early enough, but the others provide resources and one fewer coin, which may be just what you need to entice that dragon. As for the fledglings, they are a fifth type of dragon that lack any abilities from the start but can transform with enough care from your trainer (often in the form of providing different resources.) They also increase in score the more you attract to your caves. Two worthy expansions!

El astrónomo Galileo Galilei dijo una vez: “No hay mayor admiración que contemplar lo invisible a través de lo visible”. Así es, la gratitud de fe comienza cuando damos gracias no solo por lo que entendemos, sino también por lo que aún no vemos. No obstante, en los tiempos de incertidumbre, el alma tiende a enfocarse en la ausencia más que en la presencia de Dios. De modo que hoy elije agradecer por Su mano invisible: por las puertas que cerró para protegerte, por los silencios que purifican tu confianza y por las demoras que fortalecen tu carácter. Además, recuerda que la fe agradecida no espera pruebas para creer; convierte la espera en adoración. Así pues, mientras otros piden señales, tú puedes responder con gratitud. Recuerda que agradecer cuando no se ve es afirmar que Dios sigue siendo bueno, incluso cuando la historia aún se está escribiendo. Así es, la gratitud que nace en la fe se vuelve un faro en la niebla. Cuando no entiendas el camino, da gracias por el Guía. La Biblia dice en 2 Corintios 5:7: “Porque por fe andamos, no por vista”. (RV1960).

All this business (or loss of) around tariffs has repeated raised a question from the gaming community: Why not just manufacture games in the U.S. instead of, say, China? James Hudson, game designer and owner of Druid City Games, took time out of promoting his Wonderland's War Duel Kickstarter (check out our preview!) to explain why it's so difficult. We've heard the facts from the board game industry before, but James has additional insight worth hearing out. Timeline 1:30 - Going Analog's game pick: Everbloom. 4:58 - James' game pick: Galileo Galilei. 11:35 - Wonderland's War Duel, a new Wonderland's War expansion, Madcala, Off With Their Heads!, and an expansion to Tidal Blades 2. 22:03 - James' topic: Why making board games in America is so difficult.

Galileo Galilei - Người dám nói lên sự thật dù cả thế giới bảo ông sai | Viết Cùng Tiểu HyVideo này được chuyển thể từ bài viết gốc trên nền tảng mạng xã hội chia sẻ tri thức Spiderum

Calculus Reordered: A History of the Big Ideas (Princeton UP, 2019) takes readers on a remarkable journey through hundreds of years to tell the story of how calculus evolved into the subject we know today. David Bressoud explains why calculus is credited to seventeenth-century figures Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz, and how its current structure is based on developments that arose in the nineteenth century. Bressoud argues that a pedagogy informed by the historical development of calculus represents a sounder way for students to learn this fascinating area of mathematics. Delving into calculus's birth in the Hellenistic Eastern Mediterranean—particularly in Syracuse, Sicily and Alexandria, Egypt—as well as India and the Islamic Middle East, Bressoud considers how calculus developed in response to essential questions emerging from engineering and astronomy. He looks at how Newton and Leibniz built their work on a flurry of activity that occurred throughout Europe, and how Italian philosophers such as Galileo Galilei played a particularly important role. In describing calculus's evolution, Bressoud reveals problems with the standard ordering of its curriculum: limits, differentiation, integration, and series. He contends that the historical order—integration as accumulation, then differentiation as ratios of change, series as sequences of partial sums, and finally limits as they arise from the algebra of inequalities—makes more sense in the classroom environment. Exploring the motivations behind calculus's discovery, Calculus Reordered highlights how this essential tool of mathematics came to be. David M. Bressoud is DeWitt Wallace Professor of Mathematics at Macalester College and Director of the Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences. His many books include Second Year Calculus and A Radical Approach to Lebesgue's Theory of Integration. He lives in St. Paul, Minnesota.

In 1633, Galileo Galilei was condemned by the Roman Inquisition for teaching that the Earth revolves around the Sun. His defiance became a symbol of individual conscience against powerful institutions. On this episode of The Chris Spangle Show, we explore the history of individualism versus collectivism — from Socrates to the Stoics, from Christianity and the Reformation to Enlightenment thinkers such as John Locke and John Stuart Mill, and into the American founding. We also explore libertarian principles of ethical individualism, free speech, and personal responsibility, contrasting them with the dangers of conformity, censorship, and control inherent in collectivism. What you'll learn in this episode: Galileo's trial and its impact on science and freedom How Christianity and the Reformation shaped individualism The Enlightenment's role in liberty and natural rights Ethical individualism vs. collectivist control Why libertarians defend conscience, speech, and voluntary cooperation ⁠https://youtu.be/q3Y7zGmoYaA⁠ 00:00 Galileo vs. the Inquisition 01:49 The Rise of Heliocentrism 02:42 Courage, Individualism, & Libertarianism 03:33 What Is Individualism?

My friend Dr. Brian Keating, leading cosmologist and all-around mensch, joins me to discuss one of the most brilliant, complicated, and misunderstood men in all of Western history. No, not Elon Musk. Galileo Galilei! We cover Galileo's daring philosophy of science, his contributions to human knowledge, his devout Catholic faith, and his many, many mistresses and children. Plus: what can believers learn from scientists, and vice versa? It's a terrific conversation and the kind you could really only get on Young Heretics.
