Scientist\'s genius was almost buried

Galileo is Italy famous physicists and astronomers. His famous \"Pisa\" experiment, overturned Aristotle \"fall is proportional to the speed and weight of the falling body\" this was to comply with the law of thousands of years, creating a person in modern physics. But you know, Galileo once wanted to be a monk in his youth, the scientist\'s genius was almost buried in the convent too! Help change the idea of Galileo, is his father fanshanzuo.

Fanshanzuo was a pipa executant and composer, but he could not rely on music for a living, they opened a small shop, had a poor life. Fanshanzuo good at maths, but that time Italy, people do not understand the usefulness of mathematics, not even a University dedicated mathematics teacher. In this case, where a Yamasa reluctant son study music, son is not willing to learn Mathematics, he hoped that the son grows up to become a doctor. Galileo, this name is in honour of their ancestors, a famous doctor.

In order to enable Galileo entered the University, where the Yamasa tour on the boluosa monastery of children to a school to learn. Education in Europe at that time, science is theology of slaves, many schools are attached in the convent. Galileo is religious upbringing in the school, see a few years, made his emotional, determined to become a monk, contribution to the life of God.

In the eyes of the people at that time, the monk is a noble calling, as God devotion, this spirit is precious. Galileo\'s father learned this news fanshanzuo, strongly disagree. He knew that Galileo is a love thinking about children, from anything like asking why. Remember a winter he led Galileo to a friend\'s House as a guest, when very cold climate, floating large snowflakes were falling from the sky, on the streets, the roof is a piece of white. Small Galileo were very happy, followed his father back and jumping while singing. Suddenly he stopped, looked at me the scene with snow, asked: \"Dad, why the autumn rains in spring and summer, winter snows do? ”
\"Winter is cold, rain into snowflakes fall in the air! ”
\"Well, rain without color, why do snow is white it? \"Small Galileo thought for a moment, and asked the father.
Dad lived was asked.

Fanshanzuo believes that being active, agile, as Galileo\'s children, bound is not long after willing to accept the religious dogma; dull, suffocating life in the monastery, Galileo will bear. His home with Galileo from the monastery, he had the patience to persuade.
Finally, Galileo has be aware, he had accepted my father\'s advice and changed the original silly idea, entered the University of Pisa he became a medical student.

Galileo in Pisa, the University of reading, understanding a number of mathematicians. He is very interested in natural science, began to observe and study of astronomy and physical phenomenon, since then embarked on a path of scientific research.
