How close can a meteor pass earth to cause damage?
Well, it depends on the size of the meteorite you're talking about. If you want to cause a small crater, then go anywhere from a few meters across to a small house in diameter. If you want to cause some minor effects, get something from the size of a large house to 150ft in diameter (Meteor Crater in Arizona.) If you want to cause some major effects to mass extinction, use a meteor the size of 1 mile to 20 miles in diameter or a comet. (One that killed the dinosaurs.) If you want to cause a cataclysmic explosion which can have a shock wave reach Earth's antipodal point, use something +60mi in diameter. (Shockwave goes all the way around the Earth.) If you want to completely destroy the Earth, use a asteroid the size of Venus or larger.

You are looking for Nicolaus Copernicus (Mikolaj Kopernik). He was the first to introduce the heliocentric cosmetology. He was not only an astronomer but also an artist, mathematician, scholar and physician to name a few.
What are the facts about copernicus?
—He was a polish astronomer, he was best know for his theory that the sun was near the center of the universe and that earth and other planets rotated around the center of the universe which makes sense to me because the planets rotate around the sun and he thinks that the sun is near the center of the universe. Copernicus did not believe that the earth and other planets were influenced by or revolved due to the sun, that kinda contradicts what I said, but in a way we are both coming together to say the same thing.
What did copernicus' parents do?
Nicolaus Copernicus' father was a merchant, and his mother was the daughter of a (wealthy) merchant. As they lived in the 15th century, they fit "appropriately" into society of the time and the locale (Royal Prussia) where they resided. This almost certainly means that Copernicus' mother did not "work" or have a "professional" life, per se.
