    RUclips decided to recommend your “Fermi Paradox 3: SETI- Foundations and Fascinations”.
    It makes me smile thinking about how much you’ve improved ever aspect since those earliest videos almost 7 years ago. Audio stands out of course, but you’ve made huge developments in script writing and editing too. And when reflecting about it, you are so much better at staying on track.

    I swear I almost stood to give you an ovation at the end of this. Galileo has always been one of my favorite historical figures of science. When I was a teen in south Florida, I worked as a volunteer at the Aldrin Planetarium (now named for some rando rich person not the second person on the moon). You would be a great creator of planetarium shows.

    Sir Nick. For all the incredible work you do in the production of your videos, I fear that your exceptional writing can be overlooked. I, myself, am primarily a musical artist who dabbles in photography and film. No matter how much “technique” I can muster in my 55 years, I always come back to the writing. I could attempt to further elucidate, but you know…

    I shared this video with someone who is very knowledgeable about the subject, seeking a second opinion and review, and I'm sorry to say they were quite scathing. Several criticisms concern your statements that "no-one else on Earth could see what he was seeing" (21:06), "he was the only person with such telescopes" (23:05), and "it would be twenty years before any telescopes better than Galileo's were manufactured" (23:30). I'm told that Harriot's telescopes were of better quality than Galileo's (though he did not disseminate his findings), and that others were making astronomical observations with telescopes equal in quality (including Marius, who did share his findings but without the benefit of Galileo's social connections, and whose reputation Galileo destroyed through accusations of plagiarism that were not proved false until the 19th century). Moreover, you state that Kepler confirmed the existence of the Galilean satellites, but of course, Kepler with his poor eyesight was unable to use a telescope and accepted Galileo's findings without confirming them.
    In some cases, I can acknowledge that one might have different views about which facts can be omitted without being misleading and to what extent it is the historian's duty to address popular myths, but other cases seem more clear cut. Would you like to add anything regarding the above?

    • @parallaxnick637
      @parallaxnick637  Год назад

      Marius is a topic of the next video. I admit the 20 year line was probably wrong, though I didn't make it up. I got it from Galileo His life and Works by Rymond Seeger. Harriott didn't have a galileo-level telescope until 1611. I can confirm from multiple sources that Kepler confirmed the galilean moons in 1611 after receiving one of Galileo's telescopes from the Elector of Cologne

    • @apm77
      @apm77 Год назад

      ​ @parallaxnick637 Thanks for your reply. I see disagreements between sources as opportunities to learn something, but since my source has not commented further (except to add further criticisms, many of them minor, e.g. that Marius/Mayr was not a professor), and since I haven't been granted permission to name names, I'm happy to leave it there. I am in no position to abjudicate who is right, or who keeps matters in better proportion; my reasons for trusting particular sources are heuristic. I am persuaded that you are conscientious in your research, and that any errors there may be are honest ones.
