Thoughts from places: Griffith Observatory
The most beautiful ceiling is the one that plainly depicts the truth.
All of the pictures and overlay in this video were taken on my trip to Europe in 2009 (except night sky time lapses filmed in the South Australian desert). My point is this: if "no one could have acted with more piety" then why was Galileo persecuted? If we should "not allow the movement of the Sun and Earth to become a matter of faith," then why was it? The best way to deal with unfortunate history is truthfully, not with propaganda.
