	"e queste diversita nascono dal mouimento annuo della Terra" - Galileo Galelli, 1613 (and these differences are born of the annual movement of the Earth.)

							Galileo Galilie was the first human to see Jupiter and many of the stars in our solar system with his own eyes.  He helped develop the telescope and opened the door to modern astronomy.  He also spend the latter part of his life in exile for printing the statement above.  Galilio researched the stars for over 20 years before declaring, without a doubt, that the earth moves around the sun inside our solar system.  His dedication to the study of the planets and his determination to stand behind what he believed in is a reminder that beliefs are only as strnge as those who believe in them and the truth will set us free.
