原文及翻譯
Later, astronomers came to agree with Copernicus's view. One of the most famous of these was Galileo, an Italian scientist. Galileo is famous for demonstrating that light and heavy objects fall at exactly the same speed, unless an object is so light that it is slowed by the air.
后來(lái),天文學(xué)家們開(kāi)始認(rèn)同哥白尼的觀點(diǎn)。其中最著名的一位是意大利科學(xué)家伽利略。伽利略因證明輕物體和重物體下落的速度完全相同而聞名,除非物體太輕以至于被空氣減慢。
Galileo was also the first astronomer to use a powerful telescope to observe the sky. He discovered many unknown features of the moon, the sun, and the... When Galileo announced that he believed in Copernicus's theory that the earth revolved around the sun, some officials of the Roman Catholic Church were angry.
伽利略也是第一位使用強(qiáng)力望遠(yuǎn)鏡觀察天空的天文學(xué)家。他發(fā)現(xiàn)了月亮、太陽(yáng)和太陽(yáng)系的許多未知特征。當(dāng)伽利略宣布他相信哥白尼的地球圍繞太陽(yáng)旋轉(zhuǎn)的理論時(shí),羅馬天主教會(huì)的一些官員非常憤怒。
They argued that this theory was against the beliefs of the church. Some church officials disagreed with his view, but the authorities decided that Galileo should be punished by house arrest; in other words, Galileo was not allowed to leave his house. Also, Galileo was forced to make a public statement that renounced his belief in the heliocentric theory.
他們認(rèn)為這一理論違背了教會(huì)的信仰。一些教會(huì)官員不同意他的觀點(diǎn),但當(dāng)局決定對(duì)伽利略處以軟禁的懲罰;換句話(huà)說(shuō),伽利略不準(zhǔn)離開(kāi)家。此外,伽利略還被迫公開(kāi)發(fā)表聲明,放棄他對(duì)日心說(shuō)的信仰。
