Galileo Galilei, the Italian scientist and mathematician, wrote the book The Starry Messenger in 1610. The book described his observations made using a telescope and supported the heliocentric model of the universe. It was later condemned by the Catholic Church for contradicting the geocentric view supported by the church at the time.
