The Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei was born in Pisa on 15 February 1564. Considered the father of modern science for having introduced the scientific method, Galileo was a supporter of the Copernican theory that sees the Sun at the centre of the solar system and not the Earth.

“The year 2013 Nobel prize for physics was about something small that makes all the difference.” In the 1960s, Peter Higgs and Francois Englert were among several physicists who proposed a mechanism to explain why the most basic building blocks of the Universe have mass. The mechanism predicts a particle – the Higgs boson –…
