aristotle is the guy who's theories about falling bodies stuck around for 2k years and could have been easily disproved by crumpling up a piece of papyrus and dropping it alongside its un-crumpled equivalent, an easy enough experiment. this would have proved that two bodies fall at different speeds regardless of weight, and that you shouldn't, as a scientist, put too much stock in weight of a thing wen considering how quickly it will fall. Galileo comes along and shatters aristotle's bu****it theories, dying in 1642. in that same year, isaac newton was born, and would later attempt to put together those shattered pieces. it took him a while, but when he was 45 he finally came out with "philosophiæ naturalis principia mathematica." this was some great s**t, lemme tell you, and he couldn't have done it without galileo's super bold theories. how did galileo come up with this s**t, you might ask? well the answer is simple; inclined PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ PLANEZ
