Galileo Galilei worked at the University of Pisa and taught students that everything, including the sun, revolved around the Earth. He later discovered this to be wrong and the Roman Catholic Church sentenced him to prison for life. He lived out the rest of his years, 98, under house arrest in his villa.
Galileo Galilei did not get killed. He passed away in 1642 from natural causes. He suffered from health issues towards the end of his life, such as blindness and heart problems, but there is no evidence to suggest he was killed.
Galileo Galilei is most famous for his development and improvement of the telescope, his support of the heliocentric theory proposed by Copernicus, his discoveries in astronomy (such as the moons of Jupiter and sunspots), and his struggle with the Catholic Church over his beliefs.
Galileo Galilei was born in Pisa, Italy and spent most of his childhood there. He later moved to Florence to study at the University of Pisa before eventually settling in Padua where he carried out the majority of his scientific work.
There is a picture book by Peter Sis called Starry Messenger: Galileo Galilei.

Galileo Galilei. Perhaps his most important discovery was finding that acceleration due to gravity is independent of the objects mass.

Most definately not. Galileo Galilei died in 1642. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) did not begin until 1830. Galileo missed the opportunity to be a Mormon by 188 years. Even if Galileo had been alive in 1830, the Mormons were in New York, USA and Galileo was in Italy. Mormonism did not arrive in Italy until 1850.
Galileo's father, Vincenzo Galilei, was a lute player and music theorist. Galileo's mother, GiuliaAmmannati, had no occupation.
That was Galileo Galilei.
The pendulum was first discovered by Galileo Galilei in the early 17th century while he was studying the motion of chandeliers in a cathedral. His observations led to the development of the pendulum clock and revolutionized timekeeping.
The Galileo thermometer is based on a thermoscope designed by Galileo Galilei. There are multiple bubbles filled with different colored liquids and tags that indicate temperature. They sink or rise when their density changes with the temperature of the water around them. The bubble that sinks the farthest is the most accurate temperature.
