He discovered that interesting results could be obtained by using a telescope.
Galileo Galilei first recorded phases in Venus in 1610, and published his findings in 1613.
Galileo discovered the telescope, and phases of the moon
Galileo discovered the four largest moons of Jupiter (later named the Galilean moons), mountains and craters on the moon, phases of Venus, and sunspots on the sun. These observations supported the heliocentric model of the solar system and challenged the geocentric view of the universe.
Galileo discovered, in his observations of the different phases of Venus, that Venus and the Earth were revolving around the Sun. This was contrary to the misconception at the time that everything revolved around the Earth.
Galileo Galilei identified the moons of Jupiter, sunspots, the phases of Venus, and the craters on the Moon. He also made significant contributions to the development of the telescope and the scientific method.
Galileo discovered sunspots in 1612. He also discovered the phases of Venus and four of Jupiter's moons during his lifetime.

No. He discovered the phases of venus.
Well yes and no. The phases of the moon were understood well before Galileo --- however Galileo discovered the moons of Jupiter and no doubt their associated phases --- as well as the phases of Venus.

Galileo discovered that the planet Venus has phases (like the moon); he saw that the Moon had craters and mountains; and that the Sun had moving black spots on its face; and four new moons circling the planet Jupiter. His biggest achievement though, was that the Earth rotates the Sun.
Galileo Galilei is credited with making significant astronomical discoveries, including the discovery of Jupiter's four largest moons (now known as the Galilean moons) in 1610. He also provided evidence to support the heliocentric model of the solar system proposed by Copernicus, which posited that the Sun, rather than the Earth, was at the center of the solar system.
Yes, Galileo used a telescope to observe the phases of Jupiter in 1610. He discovered that the planet showed different phases similar to the Moon, which supported the heliocentric model of the solar system.
Galileo discovered the moons of Jupiter and observed the phases of Venus, providing evidence to support the heliocentric model of the solar system. Herschel discovered the planet Uranus and infrared radiation, expanding our understanding of the universe.
