Luther, the monk in question, nailed the 95 theses the door of the church on Halloween , which touched off the Refornation. Luther was an extremely erudite man and while in protective custody- translated The Bible into German, using much older referenced notes plus a working knowledge of German. This milestone event occured in the Wartburg - a fortified castle where Luther was held for a time ( accounts vary, but maybe 2 years) in protective custody, strictly speaking, he was not a political prisoner.

What did the Catholic Church teach about the position of the planets?

It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. The Catholic Church has no official teaching on the position of the planets, the Catholic Church is the Mystical Body of Christ and is here to bring Our Blessed Lord to people, and people to God, through her preaching, her Sacraments, and her witness. In all matters of science, which are not matters of faith, she leaves that up to the scientists. Most of modern science has been founded by Catholic priests and monks.
