Galileo Galilei, born in 1564 in Italy, challenged the Catholic Church's geocentric doctrine by using his telescope to discover that Jupiter has moons and Venus shows phases, proving that planets orbit the Sun rather than Earth; despite being tried for heresy in 1633 and forced to recant under threat of torture, he maintained his scientific convictions throughout his life under house arrest.

Galileo's SHOCKING Discovery That Almost Got Him KilledAjouté :
Galileo Galilei's life story explained in 1 minute. Galileo was born in 1564 in Italy when everyone believed the Earth was the center of the universe. The Catholic Church taught that the Sun moved around us, and questioning this was dangerous. In 1609, Galileo built one of the first telescopes and pointed it at the sky. What he saw changed everything. Jupiter had moons orbiting around it. Venus showed phases like our moon. The evidence was clear. Planets moved around the Sun, not Earth. Galileo published his discoveries and supported Copernicus's theory that Earth orbits the Sun. The Church was furious. In 1633, the Inquisition put him on trial for heresy. Faced with torture and death, the 70-year-old scientist was forced to say his discoveries were wrong. Legend says after his trial, Galileo whispered, "And yet it moves about the Earth." He spent his final years under house arrest, nearly blind, but never stopped believing in what he saw. Galileo proved the truth about our solar system and paid the price for challenging powerful beliefs. Follow Fact Raiders for more.
