What was gaileo's mechanistic concept of the universe?
Galileo's support for the heliocentric theory (note that this is Copernicus's theory, not Galileo's) got him into trouble with the Roman Catholic Church. In 1633 the Inquisition convicted him of heresy and forced him to recant (publicly withdraw) his support of Copernicus. They sentenced him to life imprisonment, but because of his advanced age allowed him serve his term under house arrest at his villa in Arcetri outside of Florence.AddendumHeliocentrism is the theory that the Sun is at the center of the Solar System as opposed to geocentrism, the Church supported theory which put the Earth at the center of the Solar System. Gravitation(improved)Galileo also added the study of Gravitation of twenty objects. One set of ten were the very light things and the other ten were the heavy pair. The people thought that the heavy pair would fall first but instead they fell at the same time!!! So this is the proof or that the gravity is even.
21 How did Kepler deviate from the beliefs of Aristotle and Copernicus in his first law?
Johannes Kepler came up with his first law in 1618 which says that every planet moves in an ellipse with the Sun at one focus (an ellipse has two of these). It differs from earlier theories, which were not bad, just complicated, that the planets move in a system of circles. There would be a circle for the main orbit, then another small circle to allow for the fact that each planet is sometimes closer to the Sun or further away than normal, then another small circle to allow for the inclination of the orbit to the ecliptic, and so on. Circles were added to make the planets' observed positions agree with the predictions. Each planet moves round each of its small circles once in the time it takes to go right round its main circle. Copernicus's system with the Sun at the centre had a total of 48 circles for the planets out to Saturn.

Who created the solar system model that revolved around the sun?
16th century mathematician and astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus gets credit for popularizing the notion of a solar system with the Sun at the center (rather than the Earth at the center, as many had thought historically). The idea had been presented by others previously, perhaps the first being Aristarchus of Samos in the 3rd century BC., but Copernicus added detail and credibility and is often considered to have thus kicked off modern astronomy.
