Galileo: New findings on birds of prey, owls and dinosaurs – all in one place
We now have our own little think tank. Galileo automatically collects news from recognised science sources about birds of prey, owls, dinosaurs and fossil birds.
Galileo is named after Galileo Galilei (1564–1642), who taught us to be curious and to look for ourselves. That curiosity is what we want to share.
Twice a day Galileo gathers news from well-known sources such as Nature, Science, ScienceDaily, Phys.org, Smithsonian Magazine, Videnskab.dk, Archaeology Magazine, Antiquity, Live Science and The Peregrine Fund – but only about birds of prey, owls, dinosaurs, fossil birds and archaeology. The news is sorted into seven topics: Birds of prey, Owls, Dinosaurs, Fossil birds & bird evolution, Archaeology & falconry in history (excavations of ancient high civilisations – especially in Central Asia, Persia, Mesopotamia, Arabia, Egypt and China, where falconry began), Excavations & finds and Danish news. Finds involving falconry get a “Falconry” badge and are shown first.
Each item shows the headline, date, source and a short excerpt – with a link to the full article at the source. Headlines in other languages are machine-translated into English, with the original always shown underneath. Galileo shows pure natural science only – no politics and no opinion pieces.
