Nicholas Copernicus is famous for saying that the Sun is in the center of the Solar System and that he was the best astronomy.
Kepler's theory eventually replaced Copernicus's theory after Tycho Brahe's measurements enabled Kepler to realise that the planets move in elliptical orbits and not in the circles and epicycles of the older Ptolemaic and Copernican models. Copernicus was able to simplify the older model by placing the Sun at the centre instead of the Earth. Kepler in his new theory of 1609 retained Copernicus's idea of placing the Sun at the centre.
this guy called calpurnicus from Italy and almost got kicked out of the church because they belived that the earth was the center of everything and that was in the middle ages
Well copernicus s theory was the heliocentric theory which is that the sun is center and the planets and stars revolve around it ptomely s idea was the geocentric theory which is that the earth is center and other planets and stars revolve around the earth
Nicolaus Copernicus was the first to formulate the theory that placed the Earth and other planets rotating around the Sun.
Copernicus.
Copernicus's theory was published as "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (On the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres)" just before his death in 1543.
Copernicus was one of the first to advance the heliocentric theory of the universe. In other words, he realized that the Earth revolves around the Sun. Until that point, it was assumed that the Sun and planets revolved around the Earth.
Copernicus's theory was called the Heliocentric Theory. It said that the Earth and planets orbited around the sun, and the Sun was the center of the universe. The previous theory, mainly advocated by the Catholic Church, was called the Geocentric Theory; which stated that the Sun and planets orbited around the Earth, and that the Earth was the center of the Universe.

No Nicolaus Copernicus did not believe in the earth centered theory he believed that the earth and other planets center and revolve around the sun.
Copernicus is famous as the first scientist to re-examine the theory of the planets and how they move among the stars. He produced a new theory explaining how the planets move around, published in 1543. It raised questions about the ancient theory of Ptolemy, who had said the Earth was at the centre of the universe. Copernicus realised that the motions of the planets were better explained by putting the Sun at the centre with all the planets going round it. This is known as the heliocentric hypothesis. The theory was eventually discarded in favour of Kepler's theory of 1609, but Copernicus has the credit for starting the ball rolling and encouraging people to think about the problem.
It was Nicholas Copernicus. who discovered that the sun keeps the planets one Their orbit.
