Why was it easier for the church to side with Galileo in 1992 than 1633

In 1633 the views of people overall in sciences and the church were more constricted because what was said was obeyed. 1992 is closer to our time where scientific discoveries were expanded on and investigated, not completely ignored. The Church has been more open to other ideas while still remaining strong to the Catholic tradition in current years as opposed to the 1600s.
