Galileo Galilei (February 15, 1564 – January 8, 1642) was an Italian physicist, astronomer, and [[philosopher ]] who is closely associated with the [[scientific ]] [[revolution]]. His achievements include improvements to the telescope, a variety of astronomical observations, the first and second laws of motion, and effective support for Copernicanism. He has been referred to as the "[[father ]] of modern [[astronomy]]", as the "father of modern [[physics]]", and as "father of [[science]]". His experimental [[work ]] is widely considered complementary to the writings of Francis [[Bacon ]] in establishing the modern scientific method. Galileo's career coincided with that of Johannes Kepler.
