The Ancient Indians were the first to formulate the Scientifically based the fixed and the integrated form of the 27 stellar groups which forms the Geo-centric Cosmos!
Nicolaus Copernicus was the first astronomer to formulate a scientifically-based heliocentric cosmology that displaced the Earth from the center of the universe. So yes I guess you can say he was a scientist.

ptolemy formulated the geocentric theory...
Nicolaus Copernicus (February 19, 1473 - May 24, 1543) was the first astronomer to formulate a comprehensive heliocentric cosmology, which displaced the Earth from the center of the universe.
Claudius Ptolemy, who lived in Alexandria, Egypt, from about AD 90-168, published the earliest known systematic astronomical text which described a geocentric system of celestial mechanics, called the Almagest. Ptolemy was probably familiar with the work of Aristotle entitled On the Heavens, from almost 300 years earlier, which was geocentric in the abstract but lacked a systematic approach to observational astronomy.Hipparchus of Rhodes, a contemporary of Aristotle, described a system for recording astronomical observations.Millennia earlier, Babylonian and Sumerian astronomers of the early Babylonian period (about 2000 years BC) described the motions of the planets and arithmetical rules for planetary observation.

He was the first astromoner to formulate a comprehensive heliocentric cosmology which displaced the earth from the center of the universe.
Nicolas Copernicus was an astronomer who first gave the theory (which is now proven) that all planets revolve around the sun, which is called the heliocentric model of the solar system. The belief at the time was that the Earth was the center of the solar system/universe. We now know that Copernicus was right, but everybody in his time said he was a nutcase, and his heliocentric model didn't become popular until after Galileo and Kepler.

I need to think how I can formulate a question using the word "formulate" in it.
Formulating is a verb. It's the present participle of 'formulate'.
