The scribe of sidereus nuncius was first to see rings around what?
The scribe of Sidereus Nuncius, Galileo Galilei, was the first to observe rings around the planet Saturn in 1610. However, due to the limited technology available at the time, Galileo could not clearly identify them as rings and described them as "ears." It was later in 1655 when Christiaan Huygens first correctly described and identified the rings of Saturn.
Was Galileo able to see the rings of Saturn through his telescope?
No, Galileo was not able to see the rings of Saturn through his telescope. The resolution of his telescope was not powerful enough to distinguish the rings, so he mistakenly described Saturn as having "ears" or handle-like appendages. It was only later astronomers with more advanced telescopes who were able to see and identify Saturn's rings.

Why did the shape of Saturn seem confusing to Galileo?
Galileo observed the rings of Saturn in 1610, but his telescope was too crude for him to see that they were rings -- he thus presumed they were large moons. In 1612 he looked at Saturn again, but did not see these "moons" (the rings were edge on, and thus not visible with his telescope) -- which confused him greatly. When Galileo looked again in 1614, he saw these "moons" a second time -- and thus concluded they were some kind of arms.
