Another chance to see this personal view by J. Bronowski 6: The Starry Messenger
Propositions to be forbidden: That the sun is immovable at the centre of the heaven, that the earth is not at the centre of the heaven and is not immovable, but moves by a double action.'
(HOLY OFFICE OF the INQUISITION)
From earliest times Man has looked outwards from the earth and wondered at the movements of sun, stars and planets. This programme hinges on the crisis of the scientific conscience in the person of the astronomer Galileo and in the rich cities of Venice and Rome, the scenes both of his triumph and his punishment. DR BRONOWSKI examines the record of his trial in the secret archives of the Vatican.
