What anomalies did Galileos first astronomic observations reveal?
Galileo's first astronomical observations revealed several anomalies. He observed that Jupiter had four moons orbiting around it, which challenged the prevailing belief that everything in space revolved around the Earth.

These observations provided evidence to support the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus.
