Galileo

Galileo was tried by the Roman Catholic Church for advancing the idea that the Earth revolves around the Sun (heliocentrism) in conflict with Church teachings of the time. He was found guilty of heresy in 1633 and was placed under house arrest for the rest of his life.

he lived for a 597 years in berlin ontario

Galileo Galilei never married but was in a stable relationship with a woman named Marina Gamba for twelve years.

In some sort Galileo was not important to the church,

but many people learned from him very much the planets

rotate around the sun. incredible am I correct?

He taught us so very much and thanks to him some of

us are out stargazing with our telescopes.

Galileo saw the four moons of Jupiter orbiting Jupiter, so he knew that the planets didn't orbit around the Earth.

Jupiter has the Galilean moons.

So called because they were the first moons of Jupiter, discovered by Galileo using the new telescope.

Galileo pioneered the idea of observation and experimentation in Physics. The "example" to show this was Aristotle theorized how many teeth was in a Horses Mouth, Galileo looked and counted the teeth. In other cases Galileo looked thru the Telescope to see the moons. Finally he experimented with inclined planes to prove that the acceleration was the same for heavy and light masses and was famous for his Leaning Tower of Pisa Experiment.

Saturn was the first planet discovered to have rings. They were first observed by Galileo Galilei in 1610 through his telescope.

The observation that led Galileo to conclude that the sun rotated was when he looked through his telescope and noticed that their were sunspots on the sun. He later looked through the telescope once again and couldn't see the sunspots.

Galileo Galilei was put on trial by the Inquisition for advocating the heliocentric model of the universe, which contradicted the geocentric views of the Catholic Church at the time. His writings that supported the findings of Copernicus were considered heretical by the Church, leading to his trial and subsequent conviction.

he was a happy camper the compass and he invented the telescope.

Actually he improved the telescope, he didn't invent it. Hans Lippershey invented it. He's from the Netherlands. Galileo improved the telescope by making it magnify 3 times as much.

Galileo Galilei was a physicist, an astronomer, and a mathematician. He improved the telescope, and was the first person to use it to study the skies. He was the first to see the four moons of Jupiter and the first to discover the rings of Saturn. he invented the rings of saturn and he dicoverd the comuter . xx happy reading

Galileo carried out his first experiment on gravity by dropping weights from the Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy. This famous experiment is said to have demonstrated that objects of different masses fall at the same rate due to gravity.

Copernicus' heliocentric model provided the framework for Galileo to further explore and confirm through his observations with the telescope. Galileo's discoveries, such as the moons of Jupiter and the phases of Venus, provided empirical evidence in support of the heliocentric model and contributed to its acceptance over the geocentric model.

Galileo Galilei is most famous for his development and improvement of the telescope, his support of the heliocentric theory proposed by Copernicus, his discoveries in astronomy (such as the moons of Jupiter and sunspots), and his struggle with the Catholic Church over his beliefs.

Aristotle believed that the Earth was at the center of the universe, with the sun, moon, planets, and stars revolving around it in perfect circular orbits. This geocentric model of the universe dominated Western thought for centuries until it was replaced by the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus and further developed by Galileo and Kepler.

Galileo Galilei 15 February 1564 -- 8 January 1642) was an Italian physicist, mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher who played a major role in the Scientific Revolution. He played a mayor part in the advancement of the scientific point of view, Making many discovery's of his own but also working on the work done by many other scientists that came before him.

Galileo had a theory, it was that the earth was NOT in the centre of the solar system like everyone thought, he made the first telescope and proved everyone wrong by looking into space and seeing that the sun was in the centre of the solar system, not the earth, doing this he also invented the telescope.

Voyager found that Saturn's atmosphere is almost entirely hydrogen and helium. Voyager 1 found that about 7 percent of the volume of Saturn's upper atmosphere is helium (compared with 11 percent of Jupiter's atmosphere), while almost all the rest is hydrogen. Since Saturn's internal helium abundance was expected to be the same as Jupiter's and the Sun's, the lower abundance of helium in the upper atmosphere may imply that the heavier helium may be slowly sinking through Saturn's hydrogen; that might explain the excess heat that Saturn radiates over energy it receives from the Sun. (Saturn is the only planet less dense than water. In the unlikely event that a lake could be found large enough, Saturn you could float on it!!

The Church condemned Galileo's astronomical findings because they contradicted the prevailing geocentric view of the universe, which was considered by the Church to be in line with biblical teachings. Galileo's support for heliocentrism challenged the Church's authority and interpretation of scripture, leading to his trial and subsequent condemnation.

Galileo's theory is more accurate - in a vacuum, objects of different weights will fall at the same rate. This principle is known as the equivalence principle. Aristotle's notion was based on observations in air where air resistance affects the fall rate of heavier objects.

Because having said that he could prove it, he had to admit that he could not. Although the heliocentric theory is accepted now, it was not accepted in Galileo's lifetime. After his death scientific knowledge advanced to the point that everyone was forced to admit it was right.

But Galileo was not right, given the state of scientific knowledge during his lifetime.

False, the hovercraft doesn't exist and Einstein wasn't an inventor

Galileo's view that the Earth revolves around the Sun contradicted the established geocentric model supported by the Catholic Church at the time. The Church believed Galileo's heliocentric theory challenged the teachings of the Bible and was considered heretical. Galileo was pressured by the Church to renounce his views to avoid punishment, which led to his house arrest for the remainder of his life.

Galileo's role model was Copernicus, who pioneered the heliocentric model of the solar system. Galileo was greatly inspired by Copernicus' work and built upon it with his own observations and experiments.

The motion of a freely falling object is solely under the influence of gravity, leading to a constant acceleration downwards. In contrast, the motion of a cart can be influenced by various factors such as friction, external forces, and its initial velocity, resulting in a more complex trajectory.
