What caused Nicolaus Copernicus to be apart of the Scientific revolution?
The term Scientific Revolution reflects the importance of Copernicus' contention that the Earth rotated on its axis and revolved around the Sun. The term Revolution was then used to describe the overthrow of old ideas, or old political systems. His view of the Universe challenged preconceived notions that had been accepted unquestioningly for thousands of years. His work opened the door for Kepler and Galileo to begin to explore what is, as opposed to what people assume to be.
Why did the church condemn Galileo's astronomcal findings?
Actually, Galileo had a large following among the Roman Curia, including the pope. However, Galileo got himself into trouble by teaching that the heliocentric (Sun-centered universe) theory was fact. However, at the time it was just a theory or hypothesis and Galileo even stated that he could not prove it. Had he changed his approach to the subject we never would have heard today of the controversy. Unfortunately, Galileo was not a humble person and had quite a temper and sarcastic manner and began to attack the Church in speech and his writing. Even his close friend the pope became the target of his rage. Of course, this did not endear him to the Church and he lost much of his standing with the Roman clergy.
What does it mean for a planet to be a gas giant?
The four gas giants are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. These are the four outer planets. They are very similar to each other. They are all made of frozen, slushy gases, and are much larger than the inner planets. (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) They do not have hard surfaces, and are so far away from the sun, that turning on a flashlight for more that two seconds would be more light than Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune would see in a thousand years. Jupiter is so large, that it obstructs the light of the other planets. There is an asteroid belt in-between the gas giants and the terrestrial planets, marking clearly where the gas giants begin, and the terrestrials begin.
How long it would take to go from Earth to Jupiter?
This depends on how you want to get there. The quickest, cheapest way probably involves the Hohmann Ellipse Transfer, where you begin the journey at earth's aphelion and end at Jupiter's perihelion. A cheaper but longer route might entail use of the Interplanetary Transfer Network. Gravity assists of the inner planets can help boost a spacecraft to a higher orbit.If you had unlimited fuel, you could simply boost straight to Jupiter, without ever trying to slow down. Just keep boosting, boosting, boosting, until you're swallowed by the Jovian atmosphere.The Galileo spacecraft, using gravity assists, required six years to get from Earth to Jupiter.

Was Galileo Galilei Mormon?
Most definately not. Galileo Galilei died in 1642. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) did not begin until 1830. Galileo missed the opportunity to be a Mormon by 188 years. Even if Galileo had been alive in 1830, the Mormons were in New York, USA and Galileo was in Italy. Mormonism did not arrive in Italy until 1850.

What is the name for the nebula planets from out of?
Nebulae are the birth places for stars, not planets. However, once stars begin to form, planets can come about through gravitational 'clumping' in the stellar accretion disc.

Do dwarf stars begin their life as planets?
