1 The Scientific Revolution

2 Scientific Method 1.State the question 2.Gather information 3.Form a hypothesis 4.Experiment to test hypothesis 5.Record results 6.State conclusion 7.Repeat

3 The Geocentric Worldview The order of spheres from earth (outward) Moon Mercury Venus Sun Mars Jupiter Saturn Fixed Stars

4 Copernicus Heliocentric Worldview vs. Geocentric

5 Galileo uses a telescope to observe Jupiter’s 3 Moons and Sunspots

6 Galileo (1600s) supports the Heliocentric View

7 “An object will stay at rest or continue at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external unbalanced force" Isaac Newton (mid 1600s) studied gravity, motion, and light

8 Edward Jenner develops vaccine for smallpox (late 1700s)
