New scientific ideas are typically accepted or rejected based on evidence, experimental results, and how well they align with existing theories and principles. Ideas that can be tested, replicated, and provide new insights into the natural world are more likely to be accepted. Peer review by other experts in the field also plays a crucial role in evaluating the validity and significance of new scientific ideas.
In science, ideas that are tested through repeated experiments and observations, and are supported by evidence and data, are generally accepted. These ideas are subject to peer review and can be replicated by other scientists.
Yes. The geocentric system was long accepted. Briefly the geocentric system used the earth as the center of the universe, thus the sun and planets revolved around the earth as center of the universe. The geocentric system had religious implications of the earth as the seat of "God". The heliocentric system replaced the geocentric system in Copernicus' time, with the sun as the center. This challenged the religious concepts. The "geocentric" system is still accepted. Locating heavenly bodies still use the RA (Right Ascension) system which is geocentric. Leaving out the question of where "God" lives, the astronomical question is simplicity of astronomy calculations..
Ancient Greek philosophers like Aristarchus of Samos, who proposed a heliocentric model of the solar system, and Anaximander, who suggested that the Earth floats unsupported in space, had ideas that were ahead of their time and not directly reflected in our modern understanding of the universe until much later.
The atomic theory of Democritus was not widely accepted during his lifetime. The dominant Greek philosopher of the era, Aristotle, opposed all ideas concerning atomic theory, refusing to believe that anything such as an atom could even exist.

New ideas are never readily accepted.
Copernicus's ideas about the Sun being the center of the solar system were gradually accepted after the publication of his book "De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium" in 1543. It took several decades for his heliocentric model to become widely recognized and accepted by the scientific community.
New ideas may contradict existing, accepted ideas.
New scientific ideas are typically accepted or rejected based on the evidence supporting them. Ideas that are consistent with experimental data and can be replicated by other researchers are more likely to be accepted. Conversely, ideas that lack evidence or are inconsistent with established scientific principles are more likely to be rejected.
