How did data gathered using Galileo's telescope support the heliocentric model?
By looking into space with the telescope.
How did data gathered using Galileo's early telescope support the helioentric model?
None of it but Galileo's discoveries with the telescope were very important in raising questions about the old Ptolemaic theory, which was geocentric. However Galileo's discovery of Venus's phases was not a proof of the heliocentric principle because Tycho produced a geocentric model that explained Venus's phases.
What was Galileo known for?
He proved the heliocentric model to be right about the Sun being in the center of the solar system and not the Earth.
How did Galileo prove ptolemy's theory of space wrong?
Copernicus produced his model with the Sun at the centre in 1543, and then in 1609 Kepler produced the model that we use now. Kepler's model also uses the idea of having the Sun at the centre. No-one proved anything but after Newton's discoveries in physics it was realised that Kepler's model fitted exactly with Newton's later theories in gravity and dynamics, so that's why it became accepted, and it still is.
Why did catholic church leaders oppose Galileo's sun centered model of the universe?
The Bible is written from an implicitly geocentric viewpoint, so if we take the Bible as the ultimate authority on everything, then it would be wrong to come to other conclusions such as the heliocentric theory, merely by observing the way the universe actually is. Incidentally, although Galileo did support the heliocentric theory, it was originally proposed by Copernicus. It isn't Galileo's model. Galileo did contribute to this theory with his astronomical observations, however.
Who was the first to use the telescope to observe Jupiters moon to support the heliocentric model of the solar system?
Galileo
Did Galileo's model on the solar system got accepted or rejected?
It was accepted.
Did Galileo proposed the heliocentric model of the solar system?
No, Nicolaus Copernicus proposed it 21 years before Galileo was born.
The scientist who first used a telescope to make discoveries that supported the heliocentric model was?
Galileo Galilei . He only helped support the theory through his observations , he didn't invent the model, Copernicus did.
Who created the current model of the solar system?
Copernicus proposed it, Galileo fought for it. It is called the Heliocentric model.
How did data gathered using Galileo's telescope support the heliocentric model?
By looking into space with the telescope.
Who proposed a model of the solar system in which the planets orbit the sun?
Galileo and Copernicus
How did Galileo's work into conflict with the church?
Galileo's work came into conflict with the church because he advocated a heliocentric model of out solar system. This conflicted with what it says in The Bible.
How Galileo work come into conflict with the church?
Galileo's work came into conflict with the church because he advocated a heliocentric model of out solar system. This conflicted with what it says in The Bible.
Who made a model of the solar system in which each planet orbits the sun?
Galileo Galilei was the first to discover this.

Who was sentenced to life in prison which amounted to house arrest for believing the heliocentric model of the solar system?
Galileo Galilei
