A distinct feature of the Aristotelian theories was their lack of experimentation for proof, rather, they were based on assumptions and natural logic, and this was to contribute to their downfall several years later. Although there was some level of observation in Aristotle’s physics, the core proof was a philosophical approach where the laws of nature were modified to obey a specific philosophical viewpoint. This weakness was to lead to the demise of his ideas by later day scientists such as Galilei Galileo.
