Galileo Galilei did not discover any moons orbiting Saturn; his observations were primarily focused on Jupiter. He is credited with discovering four large moons of Jupiter, known as the Galilean moons, in 1610. Saturn's moons were discovered later, with the first being Titan, which was observed by Christiaan Huygens in 1655.
