How did Copernicus change the world?
He change the peoples prospectives of the universe.
How did the church disagree from Copernicus and Galileo view of the universe?
This was because Catholic teachings back then were based on the idea that the Earth was the center of the Universe. Threatened by torture, Galileo was forced to deny that the Earth moves and that the Sun was the center of the Universe.
How did Copernicus and galileo change peoples ideas about the world during the renaissance time?
they both were scientist and both were astronomers and taught that the earth moves around the sun :)
How did Copernicus Galileo and Newton each change people's understanding of the universe?
Scientific advances in astronomy, medicine, and other conflicts continue to have great effects on the way we live and face the world.
How did the studies of Galileo and Copernicus change the medieval view?
the studies of Copernicus and Galileo changed that view by having sex

Kepler's first law worked where Copernicus' original heliocentric model failed because Kepler described the orbits as?
Copernicus's theory did not fail but it was not as accurate as the Kepler model because it did not include elliptical orbits for the planets, as Kepler's model did. However the data for calculating the elliptical orbits did not become available until well after Copernicus's death so he had no chance of knowing about this change. Copernicus's model which used circles and epicycles was accurate to the standard of the observations that were available to him.
How did Copernicus and Kepler change peoples view of the world?
They were the first 'modern' (well, medieval) scientists to come up with the "heliocentric" view of the universe: the concept that the Earth revolves around the Sun and is not the center of the Universe itself. It should be mentioned that ancient Greek scientist had already discovered that some 1,500 years earlier, but their writings had been more or less forgotten by then. Well, not quite: it was much later discovered that Copernicus referred specifically to those earlier Greek findings in the draft of his book, but left it out in the final text.

they proved that the earth rotate around the sun not the other way making people doudt the ancient greek authorities
Why was Copernicus's discovery called the Copernicus revolution?
It represented a change in scientific thought
Who was Nicholas Copernicus and how did he change astronomy?
Copernicus is famous as the first scientist to re-examine the theory of the planets and how they move among the stars. He produced a new theory explaining how the planets move around, published in 1543. It raised questions about the ancient theory of Ptolemy, who had said the Earth was at the centre of the universe. Copernicus realised that the motions of the planets were better explained by putting the Sun at the centre with all the planets going round it. This is known as the heliocentric hypothesis. The theory was eventually discarded in favour of Kepler's theory of 1609, but Copernicus has the credit for starting the ball rolling and encouraging people to think about the problem.

Freud compare himself to Copernicus and Darwin?
In a sense, yes. Freud saw that scientific ideas change the way we think about the world. With his heliocentric view, Copernicus displaced humans from the physical centre of the universe (1543). With his evolutionary theory, Darwin inserted humans into the organismic order of nature (1859). According to Freud, both Copernicus and Darwin dealt severe blows to the proud image of humans as masters of the universe. Freud saw himself as completing the cycle of disparagement by destroying the belief that humans were 'masters in their own house' (1916-A Difficulty in the Path of Psycho-Analysis)
Why do you think other religious men condemned the ideas of Copernicus if he was providing that god created a more perfect system?
Copernicus produced an alternative model of the planets that had the Sun at the centre, which contradicted the religious view at the time. The church was unwilling to change its theology without adequte proof. The wisdom of the church's attitude was eventually proved when Copernicus's model was rejected in favour of one discovered by Kepler with elliptical orbits. It also had the Sun at the centre, and when the elliptical orbits were confirmed by Newton's theoretical discoveries the model was generally adopted.
