Galileo Galilei (1564-1642,
Italian) is the father of observational astronomy.
In 1609, he heard about the Dutch invention of the
telescope, and built one for himself. Even though
his telescope was not very powerful compared to
the amateur equipment available today, he was able
to make a number of stunning discoveries which
changed the face of astronomy. He saw the craters,
mountains, and valleys of the Moon, noticed the
huge number of stars making up the Milky Way, kept
precise records of sunspot activity and the phases
of Venus, and discovered four moons orbiting
Jupiter. These moons are still called the Galilean
Moons today, in honor of the earth-shattering
scientific effects of the discovery. During a time
when the Earth was still considered to be at the
center of the universe, he publicized the fact
that other astronomical bodies, such as Jupiter's
moons, were clearly revolving around something
other than the Earth. Galileo's support of the
Copernican model of the universe frightened the
Church, which put Galileo on trial in 1633. He was
forced to renounce his Copernican views and was
held under house arrest for the rest of his
life. Photos and text from:
