... in the history of science is the (argument _ad_ignorantiam) given in criticism of Galileo, when he showed leading astronomers of his time the mountains and valleys on the moon that could be seen through his telescope. Some scholars of that age, absolutely convinced that the moon was a perfect sphere, as theology and Aristotelian science had long taught, argued against Galileo that, although we see what appear to be mountains ...

... per day of collection capacity. The addition of WorldView-2 will significantly enhance our collection capacity, revisit rate and enable more world imagery products and services to more customers." Integration of the WorldView-2 telescope, the integrated focal plane, and associated electronics will be followed by system performance and environmental testing. WorldView-2 was recently moved to Ball's new, state-of-the-art clean room and ...

For example, Jonathan Chait telescopes my point about Donald Rumsfeld's holdings in the Disaster Capitalism Complex like this: "Donald Rumsfeld maintained his stock in Gilead Sciences, which holds the patent for Tamiflu, even while serving as defense ...

Anyone could have looked in Galileo's telescope and seen irrefutable proof that the Jupiter had 3 moon orbiting it. By 1611, eighteen months after he first saw the moons of Jupiter, Galileo had accumulated a large body of detailed observations, more ...

... today. Why not then? Or maybe Galileo was not taken to task for his work with the telescope, but rather his work with the microscope. and maybe - just maybe you should read a book or ... while. But then Galileo wasn't the first or last scientist with an axe to grind, and he had his telescope to prove some of it!!!

...horizon! Write a book, and you could get some people believing it. Intellectual property is a contentious matter today. Why not then? Or maybe Galileo was not taken to task for his work with the telescope, but rather his work with the microscope. I like that one, too. We don't have enough fights over the priority for the microscope, so this opens new possibilities. -- Dan Drake dd@dandrake.com http://www.dandrake....
