The telescope, especially for astronomical observation.
He got a toy from the carnival. and made it into a telescope by putting in a magnifying glass in it.
The astronomical telescope.
With the use of his new invention, the telescope, Galileo was able to verify Copernicus's theory that the Earth revolves around the Sun. He was placed under house arrest for his views, by the Catholic Church.
Johannes Kepler and Galileo Galilei played significant roles in proving Copernicus's heliocentric model correct. Kepler formulated his laws of planetary motion, which provided mathematical support for the idea that planets orbit the sun in elliptical paths. Galileo's observations, such as the phases of Venus and the moons of Jupiter, offered empirical evidence that supported the heliocentric theory, challenging the geocentric view of the universe. Together, their work helped solidify the acceptance of Copernicus's revolutionary ideas.
Galileo Galilei noted that; if our Earth and other planets went around our Sun, Venus would exhibit phases like our Moon; but if our Sun and other planets went around our Sun, it wouldn't. GG looked at Venus over the course of several weeks and noted unmistakeable phases. He thus concluded that the Copernican model was not just a useful model for calculation, but supported by observation.
Copernicus put forward a model of the solar system with the Sun at the centre, which was repeated by Galileo. It remained a theory until after further refined theories and observations by Isaac Newton and others showed that the Sun is much more massive than the planets and must therefore stay at the centre.

Galileo didn't invent anything he just helped improve the telescope.
It helped make telling time easier in the Renaissance period
Galileo's invention helped people see the craters and maria on the moon's surface.

Galileo Galilei . He only helped support the theory through his observations , he didn't invent the model, Copernicus did.
Nicolaus Copernicus proposed the heliocentric model of the solar system, suggesting that the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun, which was a revolutionary idea at the time. Galileo Galilei, on the other hand, provided observational evidence to support Copernicus's theory through his telescopic discoveries, such as the moons of Jupiter and the phases of Venus. While Copernicus laid the groundwork for the heliocentric model, Galileo's contributions helped validate and popularize it, ultimately challenging the prevailing geocentric view of the universe.
Galileo Galilei, an Italian scientist, conducted experiments that helped correct misconceptions about force and motion. He is known for his work in physics, particularly in developing the modern scientific method and making significant contributions to the understanding of gravity and the laws of motion.

it was wen Koran was reveled to Mohammad saw , in Quran it is mentioned clearly that earth revolves around sun , later it was proved we can say by Copernicus that what bible says about earth being centre is totally wrong but fearing death he did-not muster courage to openly renounce bible , now after that due to advance of science Galileo proved it scientifically
