Galileo didn't "discover" the telescope; he didn't even invent it. He bought his first telescope from Dutch merchants, and then improved it. The telescope was originally invented by three spectacle-makers in the Netherlands in 1608.

Galileo's first telescope was quite basic. It was a tube that contained two lenses. Galileo's first attempt was a three-power instrument. However, what followed was a telescope that could magnify objects approximately nine times. For more information about this, see Sources and Related Links further down this page.

The first telescope was first invented so people could see far away. The first telescopes appeared in the early 1600s but Isaac Newton is given the credit for making the first practical telescope in 1668.

1687, Isaac newton devised his law of universal gravitation, which introduced gravitation as the force that both kept the Earth and planets moving through the heavens and also kept the air from flying away, allowing scientists to quickly construct a plausible heliocentric model for the solar system.

Galileo, in 1609. He had heard of Huygens invention ( the telescope ) but had never seen one. He immediately made his own, which were the best on earth at the time. He saw mountains on the moon, polar caps on Mars, four satellites circling Jupiter ( they're still called the galilean satellites ), the rings of Saturn and a few others. They were all firsts.

As far as we know, Galileo was the first to use a telescope. He invented it, in fact, and he first used it in 1610 to discover the many features of the moon (mountains, craters, etc.), as well as Jupiter's four largest moons and Saturn's rings, which he was the first to see.

When Galileo was vacationing in Venice, he hear rumor of an invention called the spyglass. Because he had not seen the device itself, you can't really say he stole it moreover was inspired by it.

I believe you are confusing two things here; there is no such thing as a "heliocentric model of telescope". There is a heliocentric model of our Solar System, and there are telescopes. The two are unrelated.
