Correct answer: Jupiter

In 1610, Galileo turned his telescope toward Jupiter and spotted four small objects orbiting it. These are now known as the Galilean moons: Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. This discovery proved that not everything in the universe revolves around the Earth, which eventually got him into deep trouble with the Roman Inquisition.
