Question

By the end of Galileo’s trial, what was the catholic church’s position on the heliocentric theory?

Answer 1

Answer:

The Catholic Church opposed the heliocentric theory and determined that anyone who agreed with this theory would be accused of heresy.

Explanation:

The Galileo Galilei Process was a sequence of events, beginning around 1610, culminating in the judgment and condemnation of Galileo Galilei by the Roman Catholic Inquisition in 1633 for his support of heliocentrism.

In 1610 Galileo published Sidereus Nuncius (Sidereal Messenger), describing his astonishing observations made with the new telescope of the phases of Venus and the moons of Jupiter. With these observations he divulged the theory of heliocentrism of Nicolaus Copernicus. Galileo's early discoveries came in opposition to the Catholic Church, and in 1616 Inquisition declared heliocentrism to be formally heretical. The heliocentric books were banned and Galileo was ordered to refrain from maintaining, teaching or defending heliocentric ideas.

The Catholic church judged Galileo in 1633 and accused him of "vehemently suspected of heresy," condemning him to indefinite detention. Galileo was held under house arrest until his death in 1642. Even after Galileo's trial, the church still did not accept the heliocentric theory and severely punished those who espoused this theory.
