Galileo contribute to the solar system?
Galileo had a theory, it was that the earth was NOT in the centre of the solar system like everyone thought, he made the first telescope and proved everyone wrong by looking into space and seeing that the sun was in the centre of the solar system, not the earth, doing this he also invented the telescope.
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.
Who is credited with improving the telescope and advocating the theory of a Sun-centered solar system?
Galileo.
Did Galileo invent anything else?
Yes,He also invented the a horse-powered pump to raise water, describing the true parabolic paths of cannonballs and other projectiles and confirming the Nicolas Copernican theory of the solar system.
Galileo Galilei what did he do?
he was a happy camper the compass and he invented the telescope. Actually he improved the telescope, he didn't invent it. Hans Lippershey invented it. He's from the Netherlands. Galileo improved the telescope by making it magnify 3 times as much. Galileo Galilei was a physicist, an astronomer, and a mathematician. He improved the telescope, and was the first person to use it to study the skies. He was the first to see the four moons of Jupiter and the first to discover the rings of Saturn. he invented the rings of saturn and he dicoverd the comuter . xx happy reading

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 instrument did Galileo develop which help find evidence to support the heliocentric theory?
Galileo played the lute.
Did Nicolas Copernicus use a telescope to prove his theory?
Nicolas Copernicus did not use a telescope, the use of the telescope to study the solar system was not done until over 50 years later by Galileo.
