Scientific paper

The aim of this article is not to discuss the contribution of Galileo to the modern science, of which he is regarded as one of the founders. We focus instead on the relationship between his astronomical discoveries and their cosmological consequences to the well-established patronage system of his time. We show that this system, from one side, propelled him to the position of the Europe most glorious astronomer, and from the other side led to his "fall" and the tragic end.
