What did galileos observations confirm?
He made many experiments and observations in the field of physics in general.
Why was the Catholic Church threatened by Galileos observations of the universe?
Because the Catholic doctrine was that Rome was the centre of the universe and all things revolved round it. When Galileo saw the moons of Jupiter orbiting jupiter, this proved that Catholic teaching and beliefs were wrong and if this was wrong, what else about Catholic teaching may be wrong!
What anomalies did Galileos first astronomic observations reveal?
Galileo's first astronomical observations revealed several anomalies. He observed that Jupiter had four moons orbiting around it, which challenged the prevailing belief that everything in space revolved around the Earth. He also observed that Venus went through phases similar to the Moon, suggesting that it orbited around the Sun and not the Earth. These observations provided evidence to support the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus.
How was the rotation rate of Jupiter's core determined?
by radio observations of Jupiter's rapidly spinning magnetosphere
Galileo's observations of what suggested that the earth moved around the sun Mars Jupiter Venus or Pluto?
It was his observation of four of the moons of Jupiter.

Galileos observations seemed to indicate that?
Galileo's observations seemed to indicate that the heavenly bodies were composed of material substance just like Earth. Instead of pure orbs of light.

Repeating observations or experiments to confirm prior conclusions?
replication
Did Galileo's observations confirm the validity of retrograde motion of the planets?
No, Ptolemy did.

It was his observation of four of the moons of Jupiter.
How did Galileo observations of Jupiter's moon help to show that the geocentric explanation is incorrect?
Jupiter's moons orbited it and thus did not have a the earth as their axis of rotation.

When is Galileos birthday?
Galileo Galilei was born on February 15 1564, and died on 8 January 8, 1642.He made his first telescope in 1609, and discovered the moons around Jupiter in 1610.
