Galileo's most significant observation and discovery was that the universe (or now the solar system) was Sun-Centered. Originally, people accepted the Copernican theory that the universe was Earth-centered. For a few years Galileo had to defend his discover until 1616.
Galileo held a pendulum up to his heart and timed the beats. This is what led to the discovery of measuring small amounts of time more accurately.
Beacause people thought that the Earth was the middle of the universe, not the sun.
Galileos discovery of those moons led people to realise that not everything in the universe moves round the Earth. It raised the question of whether the Sun travels round the Earth or not. A hundred years after Galileo's time, scientific discoveries were making it increasingly clear that the Sun is at the centre of the solar system.
Galileo's work caused controversy because it challenged the accepted geocentric model of the universe, which placed Earth at the center. His support for the heliocentric model, with the sun at the center, contradicted religious teachings of the time. This led to conflicts with the Catholic Church and Galileo being condemned for heresy.
Yes, Marie Curie's discovery of the elements radium and polonium was widely accepted by the scientific community during her time. She was awarded two Nobel Prizes in different fields for her groundbreaking work in radioactivity.

Donatello was very much appreciated by the people of Florence during his life time.

Yes, J.J. Thomson's ideas on the existence of negatively charged particles (electrons) were accepted by the scientific community at the time. His discovery of the electron through cathode ray experiments in the late 19th century revolutionized the understanding of atomic structure and won him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1906.
Everyone at the time of Darwin's discovery believed that people were created by God instead of evolution. We were supposedly perfect, but to believe that we had evolved made us look imperfect due to the evolution of the body, and other such features.
LOL.. People are dume....I love how u can ask ? all the time!
As is always the case: some liked it, some did not
