Nicolaus Copernicus (1473-1543 CE) was a Polish astronomer
who famously proposed that the Earth and other planets
revolved around the Sun in a heliocentric system and not, as
then widely thought, in a geocentric system where the Earth is
the centre.
HISTORY
Copernicus is an Astronomer who contradicts the geocentric
model and proposed the Heliocentric Theory where planets
revolve around the sun.
The change from the belief of geocentric to heliocentric
happened through the contributions of other important persons
such as:
· Brahe’s observation of the star Cassiopeia · Kepler stated that
the planets move in elliptical orbits and the sun at the center ·
Galileo Galilei developed telescope and observed Venus · Isaac
Newton’s law of gravitation
The Copernican revolution influences conceptual changes in
cosmology, religion, physics, and philosophy.
How does it
WORK?
In the 16th century, Nicolaus Copernicus, a
Polish mathematician and astronomer,
challenged the Ptolemaic model. He introduced a
new concept known as heliocentrism,
which suggested that the center of the Solar G e o c e n t ric M o d el
System was not the Earth but actually the
sun. This idea was rejected at first by the public. It
appalled many since their religious
belief had taught them that the Earth was
created first before all other things.
Copernicus was even persecuted as a heretic
because his teachings were against what
was widely accepted by religion. After some
time, astronomers realized that the H e li o c e n t r i s m
Copernican model simplified the orbits for planets.
It also answered issues that could
not be explained using the geocentric model. This
era began what was known as the
scientific revolution which resulted in the
transformation of society's thoughts and
beliefs
CONCLUSION
Copernicus: The Sun-Centered
Revolution
Copernicus challenged the ancient belief that Earth was the center of the
universe and proposed a heliocentric model with the Sun at the core. His
revolutionary idea was published in 1543 in his book De Revolutionibus
Orbium Coelestium, which sparked a scientific and cultural
transformation. Copernicus faced opposition from the Catholic Church
and some astronomers who defended the geocentric system based on
Aristotle and Ptolemy. Galileo, Kepler, and Newton supported and refined
the Copernican theory with their observations, calculations, and laws of
motion and gravity. The Copernican revolution marked the beginning of
modern science and a new worldview that emphasized observation,
experimentation, and rationality. The Copernican revolution marked the

also influenced philosophy, art, literature, and religion, as it challenged
the human place and role in the cosmos

Asia
Asia is the biggest continent in the world and the home
of many ancient civilizations. It is a host to many
cultural, economic, scientific, and political activities of
all ages. In the field of science, technology and
mathematics, great civilizations have stood out: India,
China, and the Middle East civilizations.
Asia's contribution to the Development of Science and
Technology
•The general conception is that many of the cutting-
edge technological developments, and to a lesser
extent scientific advancements, emanate from Asia.
Japan is probably the most notable country inAsia
interms ofscientific and technological
achievement,particularly in terms of its electronics and
automobile products.
•Other countries arealso notable in other scientific fields
such as chemical and physical achievements.
•Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, and China produce90% of
the world’s digital gadgets.
•Nations across Asia are becoming increasingly important
to the global supply of digital content and services.
South Korea’s cultural popularity around the world has
caused a number of startup’s toemerge working within the
digital and technology sectors,including website viki.com.
Taiwan is focused on software and content development.
Middle East
The Middle East countries are dominantly occupied
by Muslims. With the spread of Islam in the 7th
and8th centuries, a period of Muslim scholarship, or
what is called the Golden Age of Islam lasted until
the 13thcentury. The common language of Arabic,
access to Greek texts from the Byzantine Empire,
and their proximity to India were contributory to the
intellectualization of the Muslims and provided their
scholars knowledge to create innovations and
develop new ideas. But contrary to the Greeks,
Muslim scientist placed greater value on science
experiments rather than plain thought experiments.
In mathematics, the mathematician Muhammad
ibn Musa al Khwarizmi gave his name to the
concept of the algorithm while the term algebra is
derived from al-jabr. The beginning of the title of
one of his publications .Muslim chemist and
alchemists also played an important role in the
foundation of modern chemistry. In particular,
some scholars considered Jabir ibn Hayyan to be
the father of Chemistry
In the field of medicine, Ibn Sina pioneered
the science of experimental medicine and
was the first physician to conduct clinical
trials. His two most notable works in
medicine, the Book of Healing and The
Canon of Medicine, were used as standard
medicinal texts in both the Muslim world
and in Europe during the 17th century.
Among his many contributions are
discovery of the contagious nature of
infectious diseases and the introduction of
clinical pharmacology
