You have just done that. You could also say "Nicholas Copernicus liked pizza".
What is Nicolas Copernicus' middle name?

What discoveries of Galileo's helped confirm the views of Copernicus?
Galileo's observations through his telescope, such as the phases of Venus and the moons of Jupiter, provided evidence for the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus. These discoveries supported the idea that Earth was not the center of the universe and that there were other celestial bodies orbiting around the Sun.
Did Nicolas Copernicus use a telescope to prove his theory?
Nicolas Copernicus did not use a telescope, the use of the telescope to study the solar system was not done until over 50 years later by Galileo.

Because he didn't invent the Telescope so he saw it from his naked eye
What did Ptolemy and Copernicus use to try to explain the universe?

How did Copernicus use the idea of bodies tending toward different centers to support his theory?
The ideaitself tend toward the "heaviest" center was basis of the geocentric system. Copernicus argued that movement was basis of that system is only perceived, not real and used examples to predict the movement of planets to support his own theory
Did nicolaus Copernicus invent the globe?
No, globes as both celestial and terrestrial maps had been in use for centuries before Copernicus. Copernicus first presented the heliocentric model of the solar system, with the sun in the centre. However the earth and the heavenly bodies as globes, was a concept invented long before him.
