One of the most notable figures who developed ideas contradicting Ptolemy's geocentric model of the universe was Copernicus, who proposed a heliocentric model with the Sun at the center. Copernicus's work laid the foundation for later scientific revolutions in astronomy led by Galileo, Kepler, and others.
