Galileo's 400th on the Gianicolo: American Academy in Rome Celebrations (April 2011)
Loading...
Uploaded by Buzzarian on May 23, 2011
The American Academy's Casa Rustica (in the present Bass Garden) occupies the precise site where, on Thursday 14 April 1611, Galileo made his first demonstration to a learned audience in Rome of his new invention, named on this occasion as the "telescope". To mark the 400th anniversary of this historic achievement, the Academy staged a Conversation on science and faith moderated by Director Christopher S. Celenza (7 April 2011), an exhibition of astronomical instruments from the collection of the Specola Vaticana (7-15 April), and a multimedia "Galileo Cabaret" on the significant date (Thursday 14 April 2011). Finmeccanica generously provided financial support for all of these events. Vittorio Ferrara produced this highlights video.
