Nicolas Copernicus, born February 18th, 1473 in modern day Poland, was a renaissance mathematician and astronomer who believed in a heliocentric model of the Solar System. Heliocentrism is the belief that the Sun, and not the Earth is the center of the Solar System. Copernicus was also influential in the area of economics where he developed a quantitative theory of money.

His uncle was Lucas Watzenrode.

Copernicus was reluctant to publish his ideas because he knew that the church would oppose him, so he was scared of being kill. this is why copernicus was reluctant of publishing his ideas

In the early 1500's
1543

He said the world orbited the sun, people didnt like this because they believed everything revolved around us, earth!

he was a catholic.

Nicolaus Copernicus was a Polish astronomer who is best known for the astronomical theory that the Sun was near the center of the universe and that the Earth and other planets rotated around the center. He also stated that the Earth spinning on its axis, rotates once daily and makes a full revolution around the Sun in a year. Copernicus did not believe that the Earth and other planets were influenced by or revolved due to the Sun, instead he believed that the Sun was located near the center of the universe. It was this center of the universe which influenced those bodies and caused them to revolve. This theory is called the heliocentric or sun-center theory of the universe.
He believed in the theory that the Earth revolved around the sun and not the other way around. He didn't publish his findings until before his death because he was afraid of going against the church and of being persecuted.

Nicolaus Jack Copernicus

Copernicus changed the way the universe was though of when he presented the heliocentric theory. Until he came around, everyone thought the earth was the center of the universe. Copernicus presented the idea that the sun was, not the earth!!! It is a legend that he had a massive stroke and woke up from a loss of consciousness to see his newly published book, De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium (On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres) in his hands. He died not long after that, in May of 1543, and it was a peaceful death, for he knew that his belief had been released into the world. Copernicus did not suffer much persecution, if any, while he was alive, but his name and reputation suffered a beating after his death until it was proven right by Galileo and his new invention, the telescope. The pope did not like Copernicus' far-fetched idea, and even John Calvin and Martin Luther thought it was foolish and spoke out against it. Feeling pressure, the Catholic Church placed Copernicus' book on the forbidden list and banned its teachings in about 1650. The ban wasn't released until 1822! This is an example of how you can be persecuted for new ideas, no matter how accurate they are, but still, it could change history!
