Yes, Galileo is a good clue :D you're getting there...

You can get to the answer by two ways...
- Galileo was the first to work with something with the hability to _ _ _ _ things.
- What's the picture? (I'm not asking what is in the pic)
highlight for answer: (the picture is a detail)
Now, find a word that describes a way to get more of that word.

Hope I've helped.

You must think of Galileo and what he first used to see things distantly up close!
 
#20 has made me learn more than I ever thought I needed to know yet I cannot stop until I find the answer!
 
Any hints for #20?

Don't know. I guess it's the work of a twisted mind :D

Any hints for #20? Im sure of what its not,lol! Would being a chemist help me someway? Or would it be more in the way they felt upon discovery?

I don't wanna help much on this one (cause it's the last), but I'l try not to spoil nothing.
Pharmacology would be a more acurate clue than Medicine.
Bolor is portuguese for mould.
And no, it's nothing about technical terms... it's all about the way it got discovered.

I think now it's easy... Good luck
 
Thank you! This journey has come to an end ! woohoo
