Nicolaus Copernicus

COPERNICAN REVOLUTION
ManyGreekphilosophersandthinkerswroteaboutplanetsinanefforttoexplain

philosophersagreedthatplanetsrotatedinacircularmotion,whichcauseddaysand

◘ClaudiusPtolemy,agreatphilosopherandastronomer,claimedthattheplanets,aswellas
thesunandmoon,revolvedaroundtheEarthinacircularmotion.Ptolemy'sgeocentricmodel
wasuniversallyacceptedandconsideredoneofthemostimportantdiscoveriesoftheperiod.
◘GeocentrismisthebeliefthattheEarthisthecenteroftheuniverse.
