Among them are the laws of the pendulum and falling bodies, astronomical discoveries, the hydrostatic balance, and the first air thermometer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut today we think of Galileo as the first of the modern scientists, for it was he who broke the centuries'-long stranglehold of ancient Greek learning. Often risking his own standing, Galileo boldly pointed out the errors of these ancient authorities and spoke out for something entirely new - experimental science.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGalileo played an outstanding part in the development of modern science because at the core of his thinking was his insistence on measuring, weighing, and timing things.
