Galileo

1. Galileo Galilei (1564–1642), an Italian thinker and key figure in the scientific revolution who improved the telescope, made astronomical observations, and put forward the basic principle of relativity in physics.
   • 2021 March 30, Anton Troianovski, “Hunting Ghost Particles Beneath the World’s Deepest Lake”, in The New York Times‎^[1], archived from the original on 30 March 2021:
