Brief Explanations

Galileo used a telescope to observe Jupiter and found that it has moons orbiting it, which was significant evidence against the geocentric model. Retrograde motion was known before Galileo. Venus, not Jupiter, shows a full set of phases as seen from Earth. The gaseous - nature of Jupiter and the presence of mountains on its surface were not discoveries made by Galileo.

Answer:

has moons orbiting it.
