Venus is easily visible to the naked eye. People were looking at it for millennia before the telescope was invented. Galileo was the first person to look at Venus through a telescope.
The first person to look at the night sky with a telescope and record what he saw and try to make deductions from his observations was Galileo Galilei. Galileo had a difficult personality and he tried to assert that he was the only person allowed to make astronomical discoveries with a telescope, but, putting that aside, he was a serious scientist who made several important discoveries in physics.
In the sentence "In 1609, Galileo was the first person to look at the moon through a telescope," the phrase "through a telescope" is an adverbial phrase. It modifies the verb "look," indicating the manner in which Galileo observed the moon. Adjective phrases typically modify nouns, while adverb phrases modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs.
galileoAnswer:The four bright satellites of Jupiter were discovered independently by Galileo and the German astronomer Simon Mayer in the early seventeenth century. There is evidence that these satellites were visible to the naked eye prior to the discovery of the telescope and the "discovery" may be more of a "confirmation". The nake of the initial maked eye observer is not known.
Note that Galileo did not invent the telescope. He was, however, the first person to use a telescope to examine the heavens. Previously, telescopes had only been used to look at distant locations here on Earth.
While not the inventor of the telescope, Galileo is widely believed to be the first person to use a telescope for astronomy.

Galileo Galilei first used a telescope to look at the stars in 1609.
In this sentence, "In 1609" and "Galileo" would be classified as a time period and a proper noun, respectively.
Galileo made his first telescope in 1609, modeled after telescopes produced in other parts of Europe that could magnify objects three times. He created a telescope later that same year that could magnify objects twenty times. With this telescope, he was able to look at the moon,
The invention of the telescope, by Dutch inventors. No, Galileo didn't invent the telescope. He wasn't even the first person to look at the Moon through one. But he was the first person we know of who pointed a telescope at Jupiter, and understood what it meant.
