What did Nicholas Copernicus invent?
his astronomical discoveries were when he predicted an astroid would crash on the moon he made that discovery with his invention a telescope galil later on said copernicus did not make the telescope that he did so then when the astroid landed on the moon the astroid was named after nicolaus copernicus but copernicus was also a criminal he shot and murdered someone now if u copied this either u have to erase everything or get a new sheet of paper cuz this was a waste of paper i just gave you false information copernicus never murdered some one or did he o_O d
Who first introduced the idea that the earth and planets revolve around the sun?
Copernicus theorized that the earth revolved around the sun, and created the Copernican theory in the 16th. However it wasn't until the 17th century that Galileo Galilei brought the first supporting evidence that it does.
What about nicolaus Copernicus?
Nicholaus Copernicus was one of the first to challenge the theory that the earth was the center of the universe. He made up the Heliocentric theory.

How did Nicolaus Copernicus impact society?
Nicolaus Copernicus was the first to establish the theory that the Sun, and not the Earth, was the center of the solar system. This heliocentric theory changed the former one set in 150 AD by Ptolemy. It had a huge impact, forcing the Catholic Church, mired in Ptolemaic thought and timekeeping, to admit wrong and institute change.

What did Nicolas Copernicus discover or make?
Copernicus is mainly known for his revolutionary proposition of a heliocentric universe - that is to say, he hypothesized that the sun was the center of the universe. The generally accepted idea prior to Copernicus's theory was that the universe was centered around the Earth. We now know that Copernicus was also wrong, as the sun is one of many stars in the Milky Way, one of many galaxies.

What error did Nicolaus Copernicus make in one area of astronomy?
Tolosani claimed Copernicus made his biggest error by using "inferior" fields of study to make statements about the "superior" fields. Copernicus used Math and Astronomy to postulate about Physics and Cosmology. Others used principles of Physics and Cosmology to determine principles of Math and Astronomy. Tolosani felt Copernicus was undermining the entire system of science. He said Copernicus fell into philosophical error because he was not knowledgeable in physics and logic. To him, anyone who did not know physics and logic would be unable to make a good astronomer, and not be able to tell truth from falsehood. A simpler answer: Copernicus thought the planets moved in circular orbits. Kepler later showed they move in elliptical orbits.
