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.

What do scientists consider the cell theory?
Cell theory is one of many subdivisions of scientific theory. Therefore, since cell theory IS scientific theory, I don't see how you can compare them. This is like saying compare mammals to squirrels.
Was the earth in synchronous rotation around the sun before the formation of the moon and based on the Giant Impact Theory did the impact tilt the earth and speed its rotation?
It is hard to know the exact situation before the big impact. However, most objects start with some rotation when they form from coalescing materials, and it seems unlikely that the Earth would have had enough time to slow down enough to have a synchronous rotation.

Who was Galileos theory that the earth moves around the sun supported by?
It was Copernicus's theory and Galileo had very little evidence for it at the time of his quarrel with the Vatican, as he discovered when they put him on trial and asked for the evidence.

What evidence supports the theory of Earth's rotation?
The theory of Earth's rotation is supported by several pieces of evidence. One key piece of evidence is the Coriolis effect, which causes moving objects on Earth to curve due to the planet's rotation. Another piece of evidence is the difference in day and night caused by the rotation of Earth on its axis. Additionally, the flattening of the Earth at the poles and bulging at the equator is also evidence of Earth's rotation.
