Actually Galileo Galilei was a man that was very good with mathmatics some of his most famous inventions and just other things, include improving the telescope to one that is 3x, 10x, 30x, and higher, he also improved a military compass that was used to show what way to shoot a cannon and other things he improved it into a normal everyday person to use, he also found out that the moon was not smooth as ptolemy (he was an important person in astonomy from the second century that everyone thought was right) he later wrote that the moon was "rough and uneven" with "lofty mountains and deep valleys". Galileo also found out that the milky way was really just a mass of innummeral stars. On another night he spotted three satalites orbiting the planet Jupiter, now Galileo had proof that Copernicus's Heliocentric Universe was correct and the catholic church disagreed and said that it went against the bible. Heliocentric means sun centered. Galileo founded the law of the pendulum, he also found saturns ring(s)
