	Galileo - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Galileo
		Galileo then showed that the motion of a projectile is made up of two components: one component consists of uniform motion in a horizontal direction, and the other component is vertical motion under acceleration or deceleration due to gravity.
		Galileo explained that the motion of a bird, like a projectile, has a horizontal component that is provided by the motion of the Earth and that this horizontal component of motion always exists to keep such objects in position even though they are not attached to the ground.
		Galileo's attempts to explain biblical texts in the light of his theory were against the accepted opinion, and he was compelled by the Roman Inquisition not to assert ‘what seemed to contradict Scripture’ in 1616.

		Galileo called this phenomenon "scaling," theorizing that the bones of larger animals -- such as horses -- needed to be thicker than the bones of small dogs in order to support the greater weight of the structures above them.
		Galileo was also one of the first to note that small animals have higher metabolic rates than large animals.
		Its publication coincides with the American Physiological Society's intersociety meeting, "The Integrative Biology of Exercise," and the Summer 2000 Olympics, and is a thoughtful and entertaining contribution to the history of human physiology research.

		With Galileo's connections already expressing interest in the New York race as a possible finale to their colt's career, interest should be intense.
		Therefore, reports that Galileo, the brilliant winner of Saturday's Vodafone Derby at Epsom, had been given a rating of 126 - 1lb higher than Sinndar last year - have to be treated with caution, certainly until the season hits top gear.

		Galileo was hailed the best racehorse in Europe after his Ascot triumph and people are beginning to talk of the Irish colt in reverential terms.
		I think that Galileo is a great horse and obviously the European champion now, but I would not go as far as to say that he is possibly the greatest Flat racehorse.
		The horses that he met in the Derby appear to be rather moderate and even though the time for the King George was fast, I would only rate Fantastic Light a very good horse and certainly not great or of near champion status.
