Galileo’s Leaning Tower Experiment
When the great scientist and professor Galileo meets a bright farm boy, Massimo, the teacher becomes the student. On an ordinary day, Galileo encounters Massimo dropping food from a bridge to his uncle passing below in his boat. This simple action makes Galileo rethink Aristotle’s teachings. Galileo takes an interest in Massimo’s cleverness, and together, in a series of experiments, the two investigate the science of motion.

The legend of the leaning tower
When round the moon there is a brugh
When round the moon there is a brugh [halo],
The weather will be cold and rough.
- Scottish proverb
Word Charade: My First aglow with borrowed light
My First aglow with borrowed light,
My Second is a ship’s dimension,
My Whole, as seen to dance by night
Au clair de lune, defies detention.
