Galileo

At the age of 8, his family moved to Florence, but he was left with Jacopo Borghini for two years. He then was educated in the Camaldolese Monastery at Vallombrosa, 35 km southeast of Florence.

Although he seriously considered the priesthood as a young man, he enrolled for a medical degree at the University of Pisa at his father's urging. He did not complete this degree, but instead studied mathematics.

Aristotle does not belong in the list because he did not make significant contributions to the field of astronomy like the others did. Galileo, Kepler, and Copernicus are known for their revolutionary work in advancing our understanding of the universe through their observations and theories.

His discovered that 2 objects of an mass fall at the same time due to accelaration due to gravity. A greater force must be forced on the larger object so both objects of different masses can land at the same time.

He Discovered that Earth was not the center of the solar system , Jupiter Has four moons and Venus has light and dark phases, like a moon! He also discovered the rings of Saturn. All this using just one telescope?

Galileo didn't invent the telescope, but he was the first person we know of to point a telescope into the skies - and discovered that Jupiter wasn't just a bright light in the sky, but was an enormous planet with moons of its own. The four largest are called the "Galilean" moons; Ganymede, Europa, Callisto and Io.

Galileo Galilei's first telescope was made in the city of Padua, Italy, where he was a professor at the University of Padua.

Galileo held a pendulum up to his heart and timed the beats. This is what led to the discovery of measuring small amounts of time more accurately.

Galileo Galilei's specialization was physics and mathematics.

what is the comparison between Hubble telescope and Galileo telescope

Galileo recorded data in several subjects, including mechanics and astronomy. Not only did he record date, he published his discoveries and descriptions of his observations. We have twelve published works by him.

He was not successful, despite mounting an elaborate propaganda campaign against the church.

Galileo himself had earlier spoken in favour of the geocentric theory on the grounds that no movement could be seen in nearby stars as the Earth supposedly orbited round the Sun.

This was a big obstacle to the full acceptance of the heliocentric theory until the 19th century, when Bessel measured the small movement of the nearby star 61 Cygni. Thus there was movement after all, called parallax, but it was just too minute to be observed until 1838, 200 years after Galileo's time.

Virginia Gamba was Galileo Galilei's oldest daughter (of three, all born out of wedlock). She and her sisters were sent to a convent and as a nun she adopted the name Maria Celeste (a nod to her father's study of astronomy).

who really cares

Because it went against what the church says.

Though Galileo did not invent the telescope, he improved it greatly, and he used his new and improved telescope to discover and document a number of astronomical phenomenon. His work opened the door to astronomy wide, and we are fortunate he and others stepped through. An example of the power of his improved instrument was his discovery of the four most massive moons of Jupiter, and they are called the Galilean Moons in his honor.

No. He got locked up by the Roman Catholic Church because he disagreed with their teachings.

People who didn't follow the heliocentric theory, like those who supported geocentrism, could face criticism from the scientific community and could be seen as holding outdated beliefs. They may also miss out on understanding and contributing to modern astronomical advancements.

Galileo Figaro was created in 2002.

I would guess that he observed the sky and drew his conclusions; and that religious ideas of the time were secondary for him.
