Copernicus was important because he was the first one to come up with a theory of the planets that had the Sun at the centre. It was not really a discovery, more an alternative way of explaining what was already known about the planets.

The discovery had to wait until Kepler and Newton came up with better theories that explained exactly how the planets moved, in detail.

Nicolaus Copernicus was never married, nor did he have any children.

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.
