Galileo saw the four largest moons of Jupiter in orbit around the planet, proving that the Ptolemaic system was not simpler - the solar system was not geocentric (the planets and the sun did not orbit around the earth).
As far as the observations of Venus go, Galileo saw that Venus displayed phases very much like our moon. Now, according to the Ptolemaic system, Venus could only display a crescent phase because its epicycle put it always in between Earth and the sun. The Copernican system put everything rotating around the sun, and in this way it explained the phases of Venus.
Think of it this way, if Venus is always in between the sun and the earth, how can we ever see it completely lit up, like a full moon? The sun is always on the other side of it, so Venus must at some point go on the other side of the sun.
No. There is noting to support combustion on Jupiter.
No.
No, Jupiter cannot support life. Jupiter cannot support life because it has no atmosphere and also because the pressure is really strong on Jupiter and anything that enters its atmosphere would be crushed.It has little water. Umm, nu-huh... Jupiter CAN support life, just not any life that is present in the Earth system. There are many possibilities for life to exist in the Jupiter system, although none have as yet been detected. Jupiter DOES have an atmosphere, the planet is predominated by it. Jupiter DOES have water... in it's atmosphere.
No, Jupiter is a gas planet. It has no solid surface to support plate tectonics.
no it is made of gas
an observation becomes an thesis through experimentation, proven info and support. a thesis becomes a theory through support and a theory becomes a law through even more support
The discovery of the moons of jupiter lent support to. the heliocentric system. If you apply equal forces to a cement truck and a compact car.
No, because it's made of gas
Most people would say no
it will not support any life forms know to man. but if there are aliiens out there there might
no oxgen no food suplie and all of Jupiter is gas with little or with any solid suface
