What is Roman Catholicism stance on Galileo today compared with the Protestant and EOC views of today? Had the RCC changed it's view about him presently? Thanks

Reopening the case against Galileo
.
Hi, (edits in progress now)
(Done. I say your question is answered now. Am I right or not in that assessment?)
Galileo was always misunderstood by everyone, but he was always right.
Thus he is on par with Newton, Einstein and Leonardo Davinci, in the being right department.
A key result of people like that, is a lot of hatred, from those who are wrong. They, all get over it with time.
In this world, I know two people like that.
I have personally witnessed, as they came to me to tell me, two apologies, where the errant persons came to me.
On first one, I never understood, why he came to me, almost. He seemed to still be an errant person type. As a result maybe by telling me, he felt like he could avoid telling the person who corrected him. And that person was important.
The second one came to me, at the memorial, for the person mentioned above.,
Nicely stopped, this man starts in. His point was that he is so incredibly rich that he has to answer to no one.
But, when he bumped into this same man I am talking about, after not playing by the established rules, like everyone else, he then got fear. The man never let up reminding him of his error. Never.
I thanked the man for his kind treatment of that man. Those words he did not have to give me. He did.
The other person, a female this time and like Galileo, brilliant even beyond her understandings then, said one day. "I am so tired of apologies." She was getting tired of hearing them.
She did not quit though. She accepted all future apologies, and kept on and on.
With one man, after his first apology to her, she did not get the next two.
He just changed when cornered, both times. She can say, it is entirely rewarding to see a man lose his errors, and turn into something amazing. What he should always have been, but fought.
He was the second man, who did not want to turn out like his successful dad.
From this Idiot-Savant, Auto-Didactic, The Protestsnts so sensitized The Roman Catholic Church, by The Protestant Reformation, that they may have influenced The Roman Catholic Church at the time, into over reacting.,
That seems to be the present Protestant View today.
As stated The EasternOrtodoxChurch today, say Galileo could never have happened with them, as they are a science.
As stated earlier, The Roman Catholics admitted error on their part, in 1992, after a 11 year or longer re investigation of what happened., their apology is far less than clearly stated.
Now. Galileo was never in error.
Now. Only errants will say that.
Now. All Apologists say Galileo was partially at fault.
Now. They, all Apologists are wrong.
No Apologist is a scientist like Galileo.
So no Apologist is competent to talk about what they do not know, and that is a scientist like Galileo.
Almost, no scientist, is like Galileo.
So, almost no scientist, is competent to talk about Galileo.
Einstein did.
I know of one other, like Einstein.
Both scientists, independently, further without knowing each other's work on Galileo, know that Galileo made no errors what so ever.
He was falsely accused.
He was falsely convicted.
They did not understand Galileo, nor Science, nor their own Bible well enough, nor God, nor Religion, and like happened with and to Joan of Arc, he was hurt unfairly and unjustly, but possibly quite forgivable, if they acted in ignorance. and even if they did not act in ignorance, but with any kind of malice, personal, political, abuse of power or authority, that too is forgivable, both by Galileo but also by God, Who Forgives us all, as long as we tell the truth, then ask Him to forgive us.
The church has already asked God to forgive them for that.
