Galileo explained

The Galileo is not a unit of measurement commonly encountered in everyday life, but it plays a crucial role in geophysics and gravitational research. Named after the renowned Italian scientist Galileo Galilei, the Galileo is a unit of acceleration used to measure gravitational acceleration in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system. One Galileo represents an acceleration of 1 centimeter per second squared (1 cm/s²). Understanding this unit is essential in fields like geophysics, oil exploration, and Earth sciences, where precise gravity measurements are critical.
