Nevertheless, a revolution in astronomy had begun! Months passed, and Galileo's telescope improved. On January 7th, 1610, he turned his new 30 power telescope towards Jupiter, and found three small, bright "stars" near the planet. One was off to the west, the other two were to the east, and all three were in a straight line. The following evening, Galileo once again took a look at Jupiter, and found that all three of the "stars" were now west of the planet - still in a straight line!
