A lot, very little of which is worth mentioning.

See a historian about 16 century Italy for full details about what he might have been up to.

What is worth mentioning is his pioneering (though not actually inventing) the telescope.

He is also known for his theory about astronomy: the heliocentric model (that the sun is at the center of the solar-system, not the earth). At the time the theory was discredited, but is has been proven to be (mostly) accurate.

He has also done a lot for other scientific fields, but is less famous for those.
