Best Answer

In 1543 Nicolas Copernicus changed the way the universe was viewed. He published a paper called De Revolutionibus Orbium Coelestium (The Revolution of Celestial Spheres). In this paper, he told of a whole new universe and galaxy that no one had known before. He introduced the heliocentric model.
