Galileo DID NOT discover Mars. Mars has always been visible from Earth to the unaided human eye and was known to and named by our ancient ancestors. Galileo is believed to be the first person to view Mars though a telescope in 1609.
The Italian physicist Galileo Galilei did not discover the planet Mercury. The planet Mercury was observed by Babylonians, ancient Greeks, and the Romans.
Galileo discovered mercury in the late sixtenth century but wasnt proven a planet until 1639
Galileo used his telescope to make his discoveries.
Galileo did not find mercury.
he used a telescope
1786
1799
1798
He didn't he improved the existing telescope and turned it to astronomical use around 1609
Gallelio was the inventor of the astronomical telescope. He was also the first to use it and the first to observe the mountains on the moon
Copernicus produced his model with the Sun at the centre in 1543, and then in 1609 Kepler produced the model that we use now. Kepler's model also uses the idea of having the Sun at the centre. No-one proved anything but after Newton's discoveries in physics it was realised that Kepler's model fitted exactly with Newton's later theories in gravity and dynamics, so that's why it became accepted, and it still is.
With the use of his new invention, the telescope, Galileo was able to verify Copernicus's theory that the Earth revolves around the Sun. He was placed under house arrest for his views, by the Catholic Church.
Newton had the advantage of being born later in the same year that Galileo died. He therefore had more opportunities to make scientific discoveries based on what earlier scientists had found. Newtons discoveries allowed him to explain, among other things, that the planets follow Kepler's laws through the law of gravity and the laws of motion. Other than tiny adjustments from the General Theory of Relativity, Kepler's model is the one still in use today.

He invented the compass, the kind you use on maps and in math class, a thermometer - Galileo thermometer, and created Galileo's paradox in math. He did the basic principle of relativity. His work with pendulums lead to the pendulum clock.
Galileo was the first person to use a telescope for astronomical research.
Gallelio was the inventor of the astronomical telescope. He was also the first to use it and the first to observe the mountains on the moon
Galileo was the first to use a telescope for major discoveries, around the year 1610.
Copernicus produced his model with the Sun at the centre in 1543, and then in 1609 Kepler produced the model that we use now. Kepler's model also uses the idea of having the Sun at the centre.

Some say it was Hans Lippershey, a Dutch optician, in 1608. But Galileo was thew first to turn the telescope to the skies and use it for astronomical purposes.
