Galileo Galileo was an Italian astronomer, physicist, mathematician and philosopher, whose research laid the groundwork for modern mechanics and physics. Representative of the theory of heliocentrism and Copernicanism of the movement and order of celestial bodies. He was fiercely persecuted by the Inquisition, on the pretext that his teaching was directly against the Holy Scripture. He was charged with heresy because he did not want to give up his teachings, why he spent the rest of his life in home detention.
