Best Answer

galileo

Answer:

The four bright satellites of Jupiter were discovered independently by Galileo and the German astronomer Simon Mayer in the early seventeenth century. There is evidence that these satellites were visible to the naked eye prior to the discovery of the telescope and the "discovery" may be more of a "confirmation". The nake of the initial maked eye observer is not known.

Galileo Galilei is often credited as being the first person to see the moon through a telescope. However, English astronomer Thomas Harriot observed the Moon through a telescope he had built on the 26th of July 1609, several months before Galileo. Additionally, working in West Wales using a telescope Harriot had built for them, Sir William Lower and his friend John Prydderch also looked at the Moon through a telescope before Galileo.
