Galileo, the Man Who Blazed the Path | Part One: Theory
Galileo Galilei is a man whose story is told to all, but known by few. What exactly did he do? What is his true place in scientific history? The true story is far more complicated, and fascinating, than the legend.

2gd-x-Yl5acnew-calculation-strengthens-the-case-for-string-theoryNew Calculation Strengthens The Case for String TheoryLast month, physicists published a paper claiming that string theory’s Veneziano amplitude is the only way to complete a quantum theory of gravity. The popular science pressed took that to ask whether string theory is inevitable. What is this all about? I've had a look.
