How did Galileo's observations of Jupiter's moons help to show that the geocentric explanation is incorrect?

Galileo observed that Jupiter's moons orbited around Jupiter and not Earth, demonstrating that not all celestial bodies revolve around the Earth. This contradicted the geocentric model, which proposed that all celestial objects orbited around the Earth. Galileo's observations provided evidence for the heliocentric model, in which the Earth and other planets orbit around the Sun.

What is the orbital period of Jupiter in earth years?

The orbital period of Jupiter is about 11.9 Earth years. This means it takes Jupiter approximately 11.9 Earth years to complete one orbit around the Sun.

Jupiters size in miles?

Diameter of Jupiter (at the equator) is around 88,847 miles (compared to 7926 miles for the earth). Jupiters circumference at the equator is around 449,202 miles (compared with 40,075 miles for the earth).


In what constellation was Jupiter when Galileo observed it rimental for the Ptoloemaic model of the solar system?

When Galileo observed Jupiter and its moons in 1610, Jupiter was located in the constellation Ophiuchus. His observations of the four largest moons of Jupiter, known as the Galilean moons, provided crucial evidence against the Ptolemaic model of the solar system, which posited that all celestial bodies revolved around the Earth. Instead, Galileo's findings supported the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus, demonstrating that not all celestial bodies orbited the Earth.


What is Jupiters mass?

Jupiter's mass is approximately 1.898 × 10^27 kilograms, which is equivalent to about 318 times the mass of Earth.


Is Galileo still orbiting earth?

No. The Galileo space probe did not orbit Earth, though it did get a gravitational assist. It orbited Jupiter from 1995 until 2003 before it was sent into Jupiter, where it was destroyed.
