Galileo and Copernicus challenged the medieval view of a geocentric universe, where Earth was considered the center of the universe, by proposing a heliocentric model that placed the Sun at the center. Their studies provided evidence that supported the idea that Earth revolved around the Sun, leading to a shift in the understanding of the cosmos and a reevaluation of humanity's place in the universe.
Christoph Scheiner, and Johannes Kepler, were the astronomers who contributed to the destruction of the geocentric view of the universe.
Aristotle was the first to develop a geocentric theory. But it is generally accepted that the Greek astronomer Ptolemy provided the most elaborated model of the geocentric view of the universe in which the Earth was the center. This idea lasted for centuries until the time of Copernicus.
The heliocentric model of the universe, with the Sun at the center and the planets orbiting around it, was proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus in the 16th century. Copernicus' work laid the foundation for modern astronomy and challenged the prevailing geocentric view of the universe.
Copernicus and Galileo were two major figures whose ideas contradicted Ptolemy's geocentric model. Copernicus proposed a heliocentric model with the Sun at the center of the solar system, while Galileo used observations through a telescope to support this view and challenge Ptolemaic beliefs.
