What was the important discovery made by Galileo?
Galileo discovered the telescope, and phases of the moon
What was two discovers that Galileo was able to make by using his telescope to study objects in the sky?
Galileo discovered the four largest moons of Jupiter and that Venus showed phases like those of the moon.
How did Galileo discover the planet Venus's?
He did not discover the planet Jupiter. He only used his telescope to see its four largest moons. The planet is and always has been visible to the naked eye and was known to people since ancient times.
What solar system model did Galileo support and what evidences did he give to support this model?
telescope, he used this to observe different heavenly bodies
Who is Galileo from Jupiter?
Galileo can refer to a measurement unit, a song, a play, a film, a Japanese TV series, or to a NASA space probe that studied Jupiter between 1995 and 2003 . All but the TV show are based on the Italian astronomer and scientist Galileo Galilei (1564-1642).A unit of gravitational measurement, galileo or gal, is equal to 1 centimeter per second squared (1 cm/s2).Galileo GalileiGalileo, born in Tuscany, was a physicist, mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher who played a major role in the scientific revolution. His achievements include improvements to the telescope and consequent astronomical observations, and support for Copernicanism (the heliocentric solar system).His contributions to observational astronomy include the telescopic confirmation of the phases of Venus, the discovery of the four largest satellites of Jupiter, (named the Galilean moons in his honor), and the observation and analysis of sunspots.(see related question)
GAlileo used a telescope to observe the phases of Jupiter?
false.

Did Galileo discover the Moon's phrases?
Well yes and no. The phases of the moon were understood well before Galileo --- however Galileo discovered the moons of Jupiter and no doubt their associated phases --- as well as the phases of Venus.
What solar system model did Galileo support and what evidences did he give to support this model?
telescope, he used this to observe different heavenly bodies
What were the two observations that Galileo made through the telescope that supported the heliocentric model?
Galileo discovered two important things: the moons of Jupiter and the phases of venus. Both discoveries raised doubts about the old Ptolemaic system which was geocentric, and the phases of Venus showed that it was definitely wrong. But neither discovery proved that Copernicus's theory - supported by Galileo - was right. This is because Tycho's geocentric system explained the phases of Venus satisfactorily.
How did Galileo observations support the idea of the heliocentric system?
Galileo's observations with his telescope supported the concept of heliocentricism. He noted that the satellites of Jupiter and Venus, based on their range of phases, did not match geocentricism supported by Ptolemy. He noted that based on these findings, that the Heliocentric theory was correct.
What was Galileo's influence on the world?
He discovered that Earth was not the center of the solar system, Jupiter has its own moons, and Venus has phases like a moon! He also discovered the rings of Saturn. All this just using one telescope.

How did Galileo's inventions change the world?
He built his first telescope and started to make observations. He discovered the phases of Venus and sunspots. He built his first telescope in 1609. Galileo's taught mathematics and actually made a few discoveries in physics. When he heard about the inventor of the telescope and he wanted to improve it.
How did data gathered using Galileo's early telescope support the helioentric model?
None of it but Galileo's discoveries with the telescope were very important in raising questions about the old Ptolemaic theory, which was geocentric. However Galileo's discovery of Venus's phases was not a proof of the heliocentric principle because Tycho produced a geocentric model that explained Venus's phases.
