Do you think you have what it takes to be a successful scientist? A successful scientist is generally a good observer. He makes full 1 of the facts he observes. He doesn't accept ideas which are not 2 on obvious facts, and therefore3 to accept authority as the only reason for truth. He always checks ideas 4 and makes experiments to prove them.
The rise of 5 science may perhaps be considered to 6 as far back as the 7 of Roger Bacon, the wonderful philosopher of Oxford, who lived 8 the years 1214 and 1292. He was probably the first in the middle ages to suggest that we must learn science 9 observing and experimenting on the things around us, and he himself 10 many important truths.
Galileo (15641642), however, who lived more than 300 years later, was the greatest of several great men in Italy, France, Germany, and England, 11 began to show how many important 12 could be discovered by observation by degrees. Before Galileo, learned men believed that large bodies fell more 13 towards the earth than small ones, 14 Aristotle said so. But Galileo, going to the 15 of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, let fall two 16 stones and proved Aristotle was wrong. It was Galileo's 17 of going direct to nature, and proving our 18 and theories by experiment, that has led to all the discoveries of modern science.
What 19 those people good scientists? From the example of Galileo, we know it clearly that successful scientists are those whose observations have 20 better results.
