Why was Galileo's discovery important?

Answer 1

Galileo's ideas are important to science because after all that he said, every scientist and philosopher stared to think of new ideas. One of Galileo's ideas was the theory of heliocentic (meaning the sun was in the center of the solar system). Before Galileo's theory, every scientist and philosopher believed in Geocentric (meaning the Earth was the center of the solar sytem).

Answer 2

Galileo did not invent telescopes but he was the first to use a telescope to study the night sky, and he made important discoveries like the four large moons of Jupiter and the rings of Saturn.

Since then telescopes have made an enormous contribution to research in astronomy and have led to spinoff techniques like spectroscopy and radio astronomy.

Answer 3

Galileo's discovery of the moons of Jupiter provided strong evidence for the heliocentric (Sun-centered) model of the solar system proposed by Copernicus. This challenged the prevailing geocentric (Earth-centered) model and helped to revolutionize our understanding of the cosmos. Galileo's observations sparked a new era of astronomical inquiry and set the stage for the scientific revolution.

Answer 4

His discovery was so important because he made the solar system come to life.

Answer 5

It is important because of the solar system.

Answer 6

Galileoâ??s work is important because he was the first to suggest that the Earth revolved around the sun, which was not accepted as true. We now know that this is a fact.

Answer 7

because he explore telescopes
