The trail of Galileo

During the Middle Ages there were many theories about the solar system. The two therios were the Heliocentric and the geocentric theories. The heliocentric theory is that the sun is in the center of the universe and all the other planets revolve around the sun. The geocentric theory is that the Earth is the center of the universe and the planets revolve around it. They started to develop many mathematics and science skills and were able to use there prior-knowlege to figure out that the earth was not the center of the universe.They finally discovered that the Planets really do revolve around the sun. So basically the correct theory was Heliocentric theory.They had proof to prove there statement that the sun was bigger than the earth and it was also in the center of the universe.

Galileo Galilei was an Italian teacher that faced trial in 1633. He was arrested for teaching his students about evolution. The Catholic church were the one that had him on trail because in his book he had written that the planets did not revolve around the Sun. His beliefs were different than others. He wrote that the planets revolved around the Sun and not the earth. The person behind his belief, and idea's was copernicus. Obviously if your catholic and you believe in the bible you would chose geocentrism and thats what the catholic's did. But Galileo, someone who has been studying science for a while belived in heliocentrism. When Galileo said he didn't believe in geocentrism the catholic's thought he was disrespecting god and the bible. Galileo was punished but they didn't hang him to death. Gailileo theory wasn't wrong and people started to realize that when he died.
