What describes the basis on which new scientific ideas are accepted or rejected?

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.

When were Galileo's ideas accepted?

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..


Whose ideas are not directly reflected in your modern understanding of the universe?
