Galileo di Vincenzo Bonaiuti de'Galilei (February 15, 1564-January 8, 1642) was an Italian astronomer, physicist, and engineer who was known as the father of observational astronomy, modern physics, the scientific method, and father of modern scientist.

He studied gravity and worked on applied science and technology and used a telescope to observe four large satellites of Jupiter, Saturn's rings, and analyzed sunspots.

Galileo attracted controversy in his lifetime and was later under house arrested by the Church, as he alienated the Pope and many other people.

He died in 1642 at the age of 77 after suffering fever and heart palpitations and was eventually buried in the Basilica of Santa Croce.
