Venus has phases similar to the moon’s.

Explanation:

At the end of 1610, Galileo had seen with his own eyes, through his telescope that he designed, that the planet Venus also changed phases just like the moon. This discovery, by itself, was enough to overthrow the geocentric system.

Venus has phases similar to the moon’s.  

Explanation:

Copernicus's model of the solar system is known as heliocentric model. It describes the sun to be the center of the solar system and planets revolving about it. Aristotle's and Ptolemy's model was a geocentric one.

Galileo observed that Venus has similar phases like moon. But this could only be explained if the Venus goes about the sun and not earth. Thus, this supported Copernicus's model.
