Kepler found out that the planets move around the sun in elliptical (oval) orbits, the church didn't like this because they thought that God made everything perfect and they assumed that the planets orbited circularly.

Catholic AnswerActually, Kepler had a few problems with the Catholic Church because he lived in an area whose prince returned to the Catholic Church and all of its citizens had to reconvert or leave. But he was a German Lutheran who was very unpopular with the Lutheran Church as his beliefs were Calvinist. He was unpopular with almost everyone. But, as he was not Catholic to begin with, and left the area he had been living in, he was not really "in trouble" with the Catholic Church".No, he was excommunicated from the Lutheran Church.
The Catholic Church initially viewed Johannes Kepler's support for the heliocentric model of the solar system with suspicion, as it contradicted the geocentric view upheld by church doctrine. While Kepler himself was not directly persecuted, his work faced scrutiny, and he lived in a time when the Church was wary of scientific ideas that challenged its teachings. Ultimately, Kepler's contributions to astronomy were recognized more for their scientific merit than for any conflict with the Church, particularly after his death when his work was acknowledged as foundational in the field.
Galileo Galilei
Galileo got into trouble with the Catholic Church, specifically with the Roman Inquisition. They accused him of promoting the heliocentric theory proposed by Copernicus, which challenged the geocentric view of the Church. Galileo's ideas were viewed as heretical and he was forced to recant his views under threat of imprisonment.
