Galileo Galilei was an Italian astronomer who provided many scientific insights that paved the way for later scientists. His explorations of the laws of motion and improvement of the telescope helped him further understand the universe and world around him. The two caused him to dispute the then current beliefs at the time that all things in the heavens revolved around the Earth. Galileo made history with his observations of the heavens. In 1610‚ he wrote a book revealing his observations‚ Sindereus

While both Galileo and Descartes advocate a more mathematical natural philosophy‚ what they advocate greatly differ from one another. Overall‚ Galileo tries to relate objects in terms of proportions and uses more Archimedean principles like Archimedes’ work on floating bodies and his simple machines. Because of this‚ Galileo’s natural philosophy is mechanical. It is clear that Galileo strives to make natural philosophy a discipline of mathematics. He tries to make mathematics a more respectable science
