Who showed that our universe was heliocentric?

The heliocentric model of the universe, which posits that the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun, was most famously proposed by the astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus in the 16th century. His work, "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium," published in 1543, challenged the long-held geocentric view that placed the Earth at the center of the universe. Later, the observations of Galileo Galilei and the laws of planetary motion formulated by Johannes Kepler provided further evidence supporting the heliocentric theory.
