This is so far from what Galileo was about it isn’t funny. He was the sort of person who would happily spend a lifetime studying a petal, knowing that he may never understand the flower. ‘Scientific method’ is an anachronism for him, while the whole experimentation-hypothesis thing would be duked out later. (See: Boyle and Hobbes.) I mean, I get it, this comic isn’t really about Galileo, but by making the text of the comic sixteenth-century science (and the subtext contemporary society) it misses genuine critiques of science and presents a reductive perspective of history that is intellectually disengenuous. Ironically enough the artist, complaining about popularist notions, is invoking one himself.
