Glimpse a new norm that tells the truth,
Attend to sight that knows the stars;
Lift the old form that veils the proof,
Ignite a light with grace on par;
Lame no more then the cause most right,
Explore the skies in curious view;
Observe just when planets fill sight,
Gain learned...

An avid student of Copernicus
And keen observer of the universe,
The founding father of astronomy,
Philosopher and polymath was he.
Punished by Urban for his heresy,
For his heliocentric the-o-ry,
He appeared before the Inquisition
Which required his public recantation.
Imprisoned, muttered :”and yet it moves”
But this false recantation nothing proves....

There is in circulation a video clip on whatsapp messaging service...
About a sophisticated attempt to vouch for Galileo's take on things that fell......

The learned man, bless his departed soul, bravely postulated to widespread awe..
That barring air resistance, all objects suffer the same rate of fall...

In...

Mayday, Mayday Kirk!
Transport to Galileo
Needs energizing

Running on impulse
All deflector shields are down
And venting plasma

Possible core breech
Romulan battle cruiser
De-cloaked and attacked

They've taken the ship
Corbomite Maneuver may
Be the last resort......

I Passed out on the couch while the Friends song is on.
She said first you must love yourself, before you can give yourself to someone else.
My singular identity withstanding tragedy.
With only one life to live, you have to work hard to attain oppertunities 
I wonder...

Metaphorical yet often rhetorical,
 Thoughts prehistorical arranged in my cerebral by oracles,
 Psychokinesis ability,
 My articulate theories move mountains,
 I counsel the councils, 
Refurbished the vowels,
 This may go over your head but I've said a mouthful,
 Young Galileo,
 I can decode the stars,
 Rise...

Man and feather from Pisa may fall same
Yet higher than Pisa's leaning fault, time
Defying gravity honors your name
And I disdainful of vital ooze, chime
The coming of the beast, the invention
Of your kind. I hail the focus of mind
That turned the heavens around the station
Of the...

...or What's science got to do with it?

Galileo looked through a lens one day
And, boy, was he astounded.
The Earth wasn't flat as he'd been told,
It was, in fact, quite rounded.
Pope Urban VIII then came along
And said, "No, that's absolutely wrong,
For, I, the Church, do not...

As spring fades to summer, and summer to fall,
The world goes on turning, indifferent to all,
Not caring for emperors, peasants, or popes,
But forging fresh fortunes for scaling new slopes...
And so go our hopes.

Some stage a distraction, a senseless sideshow,
Insisting on missing its unflagging flow.
Some raise...

There once was an astronomer Galileo,
Who was never particularly fond of mayo.
It reminded him too much of sunscreen,
Of which he was not particularly keen....

There once was a man named Galileo.
To him, scientific knowledge we owe.
He was the brainy inventor
who said, "the earth ain't the center."
I guess that was his basic ideo. 

There was a lady named Cleopatra.
She was sad, so I said, "what's the matta?"  
"Caesar was...
