Galileo's Contributions to Astronomy and his House Arrest

Galileo, a famous scientist, made groundbreaking contributions to astronomy and mathematics. He developed the nautical telescope to observe the far reaches of space and discovered the four moons of Jupiter. However, his revolutionary findings challenged the prevailing belief that the Earth was at the center of the universe. This led to his house arrest by the Catholic Church in 1633. Despite this, Galileo's work remains influential in the fields of astronomy and physics.
