I used a wordplay about my body being at rest. Then, I used a quote by Galileo about teaching and discovery. Next, I talked about thought experiments as a device for the imagination. Then, I talked about Galileo's thought experiment about falling objects. It revealed a logical flaw in different objects and the rate of falling speed. In his mind Galileo tied different objects together, combining the weight.
In this week's RITE OF PASSAGE EXPERIENCES or ROPE, I learned from a teacher about Galileo’s thought experiment in college. I also talked about practice makes perfect with thought experiments.
