How old is Nicolaus Copernicus?
February 19,1473 and died May 24, 1543 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolaus_Copernicus :)
What is Nicolaus Copernicus's Talents?
Of course, Nicolaus Copernicus was well known for his amazing talent in study of Astronomy, and like Aristotle, he questioned old ideas. One important idea he questioned, was that the sun and moon and stars all rotated around the earth
Why did Copernicus keep his theory quiet and not publish them?
I think we get this wrong from simplifying history. Copernicus' theories and observations of other scientists had been common knowledge for some time. The scientists communicated with one another. Even the ancients had some clues or knowledge of the heliocentricity of our solar system. However, in 1633 some 160 years after Copernicus was born, Galileo was persecuted by the Church more for petty political reasons than for his totally old had idea about the Sun being the centre of the solar system.
How old was Galileo when he discovered that earth wasn't flat?
People had known the earth was not flat for centuries before Galileo's birth - much navigational technology had all based on that fact, and would not have worked otherwise. Galileo is more well known for providing observations and evidence that the sun, not the Earth, was the centre of the solar system - however the main proponent of this fact was Copernicus, a century previously.
How did Kepler disagree with the theorys of Copernicus?
Johannes Kepler found out that planets move in ellipses and move at variable speeds as they travel round the sun. The former theory of Copernicus was not wrong, but Kepler's theory was found to be more accurate when accurate observational methods were developed. Later Kepler's theory was backed up by theory when Newton's law of gravitation came along. However in the 20th century Einstein's theory of relativity produced some small corrections to the Kepler/Newton theory.
What old ideas about the universe did Copernicus still use in his system?
Nicolae Copernicus did not abandon the idea that planets went around their center point in perfect circles.
