Nicolaus Copernicus proposed a heliocentric model of the universe where the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun, challenging the prevailing geocentric view of the medieval period that placed Earth at the center. This shift in perspective laid the foundation for modern astronomy and our understanding of the solar system.
Nicolaus Copernicus was a Renaissance-era mathematician and astronomer who developed the heliocentric model of the universe, which placed the Sun at the center of the solar system with the planets, including Earth, revolving around it. His theory revolutionized our understanding of the cosmos and laid the foundation for modern astronomy.
Galileo did not prove that Earth was not flat (It had already been agreed that it was round). Galileo invented the telescope and used it to prove that there were objects which did not orbit the Earth, supporting Copernicus' Heliocentric model for the universe. The Earth was known to be round by the ancient Greeks, but I do not who it found out initially (sorry).
He did not need to discover that as it was already known by the ancient Greeks.
Nicolas Copernicus invented the heliocentric model of the universe, which placed the Sun at the center of the solar system with the planets orbiting around it. This model challenged the existing geocentric view, where the Earth was considered the center of the universe. Copernicus's work laid the foundation for modern astronomy.

In the 16th century, Nicolaus Copernicus was the first to suggest the heliocentric model. His thought on the matter was that the sun was in the centre of universe, and that the earth, along with the other planets, rotated around it.

Corey Adam Boucher did.
that the earth went round the sun
The sun does not go around anything. It stays relatively stationary in the center of our solar system while the planets orbit around it. This is known as heliocentrism, which was proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus in the 16th century.
he said the earth is not flat but round it rotates around the sun to make it day&night.
