Galileo was a very intelletual scientist and astronomer he had a theory against the catholic church he believed the sun was the center of the solar system while the catholic church believed that the earth was the center and this was not true. Galileos theory was right and he also had proof. He concurred his theory by analyzing the movement of the earth and the seasons as the earth rotated around the sun. the catholic church was upset with him prooving them wrong and this would make followers question the catholic church and this was bad the church wanted to silence galileo even though he had concrete evidence they did not want this question brought up to them so they put him under house arrest and he would not turn his theory down no matter what the church did and he stood by the truth even to his defiance to the catolic church galileo became a historical figure
