Galileo summed up the law of free fall, the law of inertia and Galileo's theory of relativity from experiments, which laid the foundation for the establishment of Newton's theoretical system. He designed and manufactured pendulum clock, astronomical telescope, still water scale, hydrometer, thermometer, pendulum clock pulse meter and so on.
In history, he first integrated mathematics, physics and astronomy on the basis of scientific experiments, which expanded, deepened and changed human understanding of matter and the movement of the universe. Galileo summed up the law of free fall, the law of inertia and Galileo's theory of relativity from experiments. It overthrew many hypotheses of Aristotle's physics and laid the foundation of classical mechanics.
Galileo advocated the research method of combining mathematics with experiments, which was the source of his great scientific achievements and his most important contribution to modern science. Galileo played an important role in the scientific development and world outlook in the17th century. Experimental science began with Galileo and Newton, which is the beginning of modern natural science.
Through systematic experiments and observations, he overthrew the traditional purely speculative view of nature and founded a modern science with a strict logical system based on experimental facts. Therefore, he is known as the father of modern mechanics and modern science. His work laid the foundation for the establishment of Newton's theoretical system.
Throughout his life, he persisted in opposing the idealism and scholasticism of the church, advocated using concrete experiments to understand the laws of nature, and believed that experience was the source of theoretical knowledge. He denies the existence of absolute truth and the absolute authority to master absolute truth, and opposes blind superstition. He acknowledged the objectivity of matter, the diversity and infinity of the universe, which is of great significance to the development of materialist philosophy. However, due to historical limitations, he emphasized that only material attributes that can be summarized as quantitative characteristics can exist objectively.
