Galileo Galilei was an Italian astronomer, physicist, and mathematician, often referred to as the "father of modern science." He is famous for his groundbreaking improvements to the telescope and for his astronomical observations, including the discovery of Jupiter's moons and the phases of Venus. Galileo also made significant contributions to the study of motion, particularly with his formulation of the laws of falling bodies. His advocacy for the Copernican heliocentric model of the solar system ultimately led to conflicts with the Catholic Church.
