How does Galileo's theory compare to what we believe of the rotation of the Earth today?
Galileo did not have his own theory, he was a strong supporter of the Copernican theory, which was a model that contained circles and epicycles, just like Ptolemy's ancient model, but with the Sun at the centre and the Earth in an orbit between the orbits of Venus and Mars. Galileo promoted the theory not only as a scientific theory, which the Vatican supported, but he maintained it was the absolute truth, which got him into trouble. At the same time as Galileo, Kepler brought out the improved model with elliptical orbits, which was generally accepted as the best model many years later.
