    Galileo Galilei: By: Daniel Felipe Osorio Vasquez

    Galileo Galilei was an Italian astronomer, physicist, engineer, and philosopher born in 1564 who made several important scientific discoveries using the telescope. He observed mountains and craters on the moon, the phases of Venus, and four of Jupiter's moons which provided evidence that not all celestial bodies revolved around the Earth, contradicting the accepted Ptolemaic model of the universe embraced by the Catholic Church. His discoveries and writings supporting the Copernican model of a heliocentric solar system led to conflicts with the Catholic Church and trials by the Inquisition.
