Galileo's Cannonball is the third episode of Legends of the Hidden Temple. It was the first episode to complete production and the 20th to air. Moat Crossing Staff of King Tut moat
Steps of Knowledge Perhaps the most brilliant Italian scientist and astronomer of all time was Galileo. He perfected the telescope and was one of the first people to use experiments to prove his discoveries. One day, he thought to himself, "If I drop two different-sized cannonballs from the same height, I bet they'll land at the same time." To test his idea, Galileo went to the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. He climbed the steps of the Tower, and when he got to the top, he leaned out over the edge and dropped the cannonballs. They both landed at the same time, proving Galileo's theory and launching his career as a famous scientist, but that was not all. Legend has it that the cannonballs landed right smack dab on two cheese and pepperoni sandwiches, thereby proving his theory and inventing pizza. One of Galileo's cannonballs is in the temple.
Temple GamesThe Silver Snakes are 13-year-old Jennifer and "Jammin' Jon". The Green Monkeys are 13-year-old Beth and Kevin. Drop the Ball (Peanut Shaft) Inside the shaft were some "cannonballs". When Kirk said "go", one player from each team grabbed one of the cannonballs, carried it to the top of the shaft, and pushed it through the hole in the top. Then he climbed back down, grabbed the next ball, and so on. The first player that successfully pushed three cannonballs out the top of the shaft - or the player that pushed the most balls in one minute - won. "Jammin' Jon" pushed all three balls out in 39 seconds; Kevin had only pushed one. Jupiter's Moons (Bungee Soap Ramp) At the base of the ramp were some "moons". When Kirk said "go", one player from each team grabbed a moon from the bucket, climbed up the ramp, and placed the moon on "Jupiter". Then, she slid back down, grabbed the next moon, and tried it again. The player that got the most moons on Jupiter in one minute won. Beth won the game and the half pendant after placing one moon while Jennifer was unable to place any. Building Telescopes (Pulley Pillar)
Temple RunJennifer started by heading into the Cave of Sighs, opens up the lower crawl tube to the Wall Climb and quickly heads to the Throne Room. She opens the door, sits on the throne and encounters the first Temple Guard. She gives up her pendant and the Temple Guard told her to go up. As she apparently did not hear the guard's words, she tries to open the Swamp, which was locked. Jon then told her to go up. She then climbs up into the Heart Room as she heard him. Once up, Jennifer then opens up the Room of the Golden Idols, opens up the Observatory, and with help from Jon, she then opens up the Shrine of the Silver Monkey where she was caught by a second Temple Guard. Jon follows her path to the shrine, looks inside the small golden chest in the back and tries to slide open the door to the Room of Three Torches, and finally started assembling the silver monkey after Kirk said "Put the monkey together!" Once he fully assembled the silver monkey, he heads up into the Room of Three Torches, rides the slow elevator down into the Mine Shaft and grabs the cannonball. Jon grabs the cannonball with 44 seconds remaining.
