Who was excommunicated from the catholic church for his beliefs about astronomy?

Johannes Kepler, the sixteenth century German astronomer, was excommunicated, but from the Lutheran church, not the Catholic church. His offense had nothing to do with astronomy, but with the relationship between matter and 'spirit' in the doctrine of the Eucharist. Nicolaus Copernicus was a devout Catholic, a canon in his church, and, late in life, became a priest. He was never excommunicated Galileo was never imprisoned, never tortured, and never excommunicated. He was, in fact, a devout Catholic before and after his trial, a close friend of the pope, and sent at least one daughter to the convent. Answer: Galileo because many people were not ready for his ideas

What were the similarities between Ptolemy's model and Copernicus' model?

Both Copernicus heliocentric and the Ptolemaic models agreed on the need for epicycles. These were miniature orbits that the celestial bodies travelled on as well as their normal orbits.Copernicus still invigaed the bodies orbiting in perfect circles and had to put these in to explain some of the movements of the planets. This may have contributed to his ideas being largely dismissed as it was just as complicated as the already established model. It was not until Kepler proposed elliptical orbits was this problem resolved.
