A:

Copernicus' book, De revolutionibus orbium coelestium(On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres), was written in Latin and was extremely technical, so attracted vey little interest at first, with the print run of only 400 copies failing to sell out. It gradually attracted attention and criticism, until the Catholic Church banned the book on 5th March 1616. The ban was lifted in 1758.

What happened to Galileo at the inquisition?

He spent the the rest of his life under house arrest. Galileo became blind before he died at Arcetri, near Florence, on January 8, 1642.


What impact did Galileo have on the modern wolrd?

Galileo's impact on the universe as we know it was huge. The fact that the earth revolved around the sun was not known at the time of Galileo, and although Copernicus had created a heliocentric model of the universe before Galileo did, Galileo was the first to actually use evidence. By using the first functional teloscope, he proved that the Earth does actually move, and that the sun, not the Earth was at the center of the universe. Although his books were banned by the Roman Catholic Church and the Pope, and his ideas were shown as ludicrous, Galileo is still known as the "father of modern science." He had many contributions in the fields of astronomy, by creating the teloscope, in the fields of mathematics and physics and philosophy. He disputed and disproved the ideas of Aristotle, which were held as true during the time. His revolutionary ideas changed the world we know today.
