05. How Does The Earth Move?

Country Available: Canada
We travel to Italy and follow the footsteps of Galileo, the first  person to prove that the Earth moves around the sun.  In his time, Galileo got into trouble for believing in something he knew was right.  From the Leaning Tower of Pisa to the canals of Venice and finally to his home in Florence, we find out how the father of modern astronomy proved that the ground beneath our feet is really moving through space faster than rocket ships.  View a printer friendly version of this page...Copyright Date: 2007 Length: 28 minutes Library Audience:
