Galileo
Galilei (1564 – 1642) was an Italian
astronomer, physicist, and philosopher who made a significant break from
the thinking of Aristotle. He is sometimes considered “the father of
modern physics.” He made major improvements to the telescope. Galileo
was the first to report lunar mountains and craters, and among the first
to observe sunspots. He was a strong advocate of Copernicanism, which put
him at odds with the church of his day.
