I think that it was expected to make the first telescope.
The Galileo thermometer was not actually invented by Galileo Galilei. It was invented by a group of scientists and glassworkers inspired by Galileo's ideas about the principle of buoyancy.
It happened after Galileo published a book supporting the heliocentric theory that portrayed the Pope as a simpleton. The official view still supported the scriptural teaching that the Earth was at the centre. The church was unwilling to change its ideas until there was good evidence, which science did not have until the 18th century, so Galileo was taken to court, the lack of evidence was exposed and he recanted. The heliocentric theory, with the Sun at the centre, was eventually accepted when the evidence for it was discovered, which happened well after Galileo's lifetime.
His ideas went against their beleifs, that the Earth was the center of the universe and he agreed with ideas of Copernicus.

The Roman Catholic Church, specifically the Inquisition, forced Galileo to recant his heliocentric views in 1633, under threat of torture. Galileo was ultimately placed under house arrest for the remainder of his life.
Galileo performed experiments to test his ideas.

Galileo suffered a trail and house arrest.
Galileo's about the solar system got him arrested for a decade (10 yrs).
When Galileo published his ideas challenging the geocentric view of the universe held by the Catholic Church, he faced opposition from church authorities. They viewed his ideas as heretical and contrary to the teachings of the church. Galileo was eventually tried by the Inquisition and forced to recant his views.

Basically, Galileo occasionally came in conflict with the established church ( a familiar tale in those days).
