Galileo and his students conduct an experiment designed to test Aristotle’s theory that a disc of ice can float on water whereas an iron needle will sink. Galileo illustrates that the great Classical philosopher was wrong in his conclusion that the shape of the ice is crucial and, with the help of a sheet of paper placed on the water, makes the iron needle float. | ||||
