Cosmology is the study of the universe as a whole (as compared to our particular corner of the universe, the planet Earth, which we naturally have studied very closely). Cosmology is concerned with such questions as, how was the universe created and what is its past history, how big is it, what does it contain, how does it evolve, what will it be like in the future.

What error did Nicolaus Copernicus make in one area of astronomy?

Tolosani claimed Copernicus made his biggest error by using "inferior" fields of study to make statements about the "superior" fields. Copernicus used Math and Astronomy to postulate about Physics and Cosmology. Others used principles of Physics and Cosmology to determine principles of Math and Astronomy. Tolosani felt Copernicus was undermining the entire system of science. He said Copernicus fell into philosophical error because he was not knowledgeable in physics and logic. To him, anyone who did not know physics and logic would be unable to make a good astronomer, and not be able to tell truth from falsehood. A simpler answer: Copernicus thought the planets moved in circular orbits. Kepler later showed they move in elliptical orbits.


Where was Copernicus from?

Nicolaus Copernicus was born in the Kingdom of Poland on February 19, 1473. He was the first to formulate a comprehensive Heliocentric Cosmology , which displaced the Earth from the center of the universe. He died on May 24, 1543 in the Kingdom of Poland.
