Galileo

the phases of Venus could only be explained by it orbiting the Sun, not Earth as in the geocentric model. This observation provided evidence that supported the heliocentric system proposed by Copernicus.

The world would likely be different without Galileo, as his discoveries and defense of the heliocentric model of the solar system were pivotal in the advancement of modern science. Without his contributions, our understanding of astronomy and physics may have progressed at a different pace or in a different direction.

Yes, the world would likely be different without Galileo. His contributions to the fields of physics and astronomy helped to shape our modern understanding of the universe. Without his influence, scientific progress may have been delayed or taken a different trajectory.

Aristotle's dynamic motion theory was proven wrong by a man named Galileo. He tested Aristotle's theory by dropping a heavy object and a lighter object at the same time. The experiment proved Aristotle wrong because the result was that the two objects were falling at the same rate (speed).

Galileo met his mistress, Marina Gamba, in Venice in the early 16th century. She was a young woman with whom he had three children out of wedlock. Their relationship was kept largely private due to social norms of the time.

Galileo supported the heliocentric model, which placed the Sun at the center of the solar system with planets, including Earth, orbiting around it. He provided evidence for this model through his observations of the phases of Venus, which could only occur in a heliocentric system where Venus orbits the Sun.

It does, up to a limit called "terminal velocity". Terminal velocity is reached when the force of friction against the air equals the force of gravity acting on the raindrop.

As the drop falls, it hits molecules in the air, and each of those molecules slows the raindrop down just a little bit. As gravity pulls the drop down, soon it hits so many molecules per unit of time that the combined effect prevents it from gaining any more speed.

It was sent into Jupiters atmosphere due to the possibility of an ocean beneath the icy crust of jupiters moon europa. Galileo could potentially be carrying bacteria that could be harmful to europa, so was destroyed to protect it.

Galileo was imprisoned for supporting the Copernican theory that the Earth revolves around the sun, which contradicted the Catholic Church's belief that the Earth was the center of the universe. His views were seen as heretical and went against the church's teachings at the time.

Most of Jupiter's smaller moons were actually asteroids in the asteroid belt. Jupiter's immense gravity pulled them out and into it's orbit. Some just spun around and around until it was flung into space, but most stayed to become moons.

Aristotle did not invent the telescope; he lived roughly 2000 years before the telescope was invented.

The bones on the moon were later determined to be remains of various animals, likely from experiments conducted on earlier missions. Some bones were also likely brought to the moon as a part of cultural or symbolic acts by the astronauts.

John Newton got some early religious instruction from his mother, who had died when he was a child, he had long since given up any religious convictions. However, on a homeward voyage, while he was attempting to steer the ship through a violent storm, he experienced what he was to refer to later as his "great deliverance." He recorded in his journal that when all seemed lost and the ship would surely sink. Later in his cabin he reflected and began to believe that God had addressed him through the storm and that grace had begun to work for him

Galileo used to telescope to map out the stars. To be honest, the telescope was very important because he noticed that Jupiter actually had moons... this got Galileo into trouble because it proved that the earth wasn't the center of the universe (went against the church)...... he studied the crescents on Venus and such. It provided him a scientific tool to go beyond the normal humans eye sight. If you want to know more im sure wiki has plenty of pages on Galilo. :)

None this time... did this from my memory. :)

He helped develop the telescope, as well as opened many peoples eyes to different philosophies and theorums. I believe he was a scholar in physics and conducted many experiments on things that pertained to gravity. If you look up his experiments involving arcs and falling rates, you can learn a little bit more.

Yes, Galileo had jobs before he was a scientist. Galileo found an interest in math. he became a math tutor for a while

Galileo's telescope sightings went against traditional European thought by challenging the geocentric model of the universe, which placed Earth at the center. His observations of the moons of Jupiter and the phases of Venus supported the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus, where the Sun is at the center of the solar system. This clashed with the prevailing religious and philosophical beliefs of the time.

The church was angry with Galileo because he said that the sun was the center of the solar system instead of the earth. The church did not believe him as they thought that earth was the center and everything orbited around it...

Galileo experimented with gravity. Newton merely explained how it works, and

showed that if his formula is correct, then that explains why the planets move

the way they actually do. He may never have needed to experiment.

A Entomologist! :) *go bugs!*

peace, love, nature!

They discovered water on the dark side of the moon about two or three weeks ago, I do believe. They aren't absolutely sure yet, but once the probe comes back they'll check to see if its actually water.

No, Galileo was an unmanned spacecraft that was launched by NASA in 1989 to study the planet Jupiter and its moons. It did not carry any astronauts on board.

Marina Gamba died on the 7th of March 1625 aged 77 like Galileo Galilei because they were in a relationship

Galileo was the first astronomer to use a telescope to observe celestial objects in detail. This helped him make groundbreaking discoveries such as the moons of Jupiter and the phases of Venus, which provided strong evidence for the heliocentric model of the solar system.

Galileo Galilei primarily spoke Italian, as he was born in Pisa, Italy. He also had knowledge of Latin, which was commonly used in the scientific community during his time.
