How did Galileo's experiments revolutionize science?
I believed that the book of nature is written in the language of mathematics. My approach involved careful, repeatable experiments designed to isolate specific causes and effects. For example, in studying falling bodies, I used inclined planes to slow down motion, making it measurable. By quantifying these motions and expressing them geometrically, I demonstrated that natural phenomena could be understood and predicted with precision, shifting emphasis from qualitative descriptions to quantitative analysis.
