'And yet it moves' or 'Albeit it does move' (Italian: E pur si muove or Eppur si muove[epˈpur si ˈmwɔːve]) is a phrase attributed to the Italian mathematician, physicist and philosopher Galileo Galilei (1564–1642) in 1633 after being forced to recant his claims that the Earth moves around the Sun, rather than the converse. In this context, the implication of the phrase is: despite his recantation, the Church's proclamations to the contrary, or any other conviction or doctrine of men, the Earth does, in fact, move (around the Sun, and not vice versa).

Overview[edit]

According to Stephen Hawking, some historians believe this episode might have happened upon Galileo's transfer from house arrest under the watch of Archbishop Ascanio Piccolomini to 'another home, in the hills above Florence'.^[1] This other home was also his own, the Villa Il Gioiello, in Arcetri.^[2]

The earliest biography of Galileo, written by his disciple Vincenzo Viviani in 1655–1656, does not mention this phrase, and records of his trial do not cite it. Some authors say it would have been imprudent for Galileo to have said such a thing before the Inquisition.^[3][4]

In 1911, the words 'E pur si muove' were found on a Spanish painting which had just been acquired by an art collector, Jules van Belle, of Roeselare, Belgium.^[5] This painting was completed within a year or two of Galileo's death, as it is dated 1643 or 1645 (the last digit is partially obscured). The painting is not historically correct, because it depicts Galileo in a dungeon, but nonetheless shows that some variant of the 'Eppur si muove' anecdote was in circulation immediately after his death, when many who had known him were still alive to attest to it, and that it had been circulating for over a century before it was published.^[6]

The event was first reported in English print in 1757 by Giuseppe Baretti in his book The Italian Library:^[6]:357

Loud thunderstorm for sleep. The moment he was set at liberty, he looked up to the sky and down to the ground, and, stamping with his foot, in a contemplative mood, said, Eppur si muove, that is, still it moves, meaning the Earth.^[7]:52

The book became widely published in Querelles Littéraires in 1761.^[8]

And Yet It MovesInverting traditional platformer gameplay, And Yet It Moves explores a world that literally revolves around the player. Created by a group of students at the Vienna Institute of Technology, And Yet It Moves is designed as an interactive collage world of ripped paper.

When players rotate the world, all objects are briefly frozen, and after rotation objects continue to move with their original velocity. With this ability players can move objects and yourself to solve the game's many puzzles, but also need to maintain orientation and watch out for dangerous situations.
