Aristotle said the earth was in the center.
Ptolemy supported Aristotle and added to it.
Copernicus said the sun was in the middle.
Galileo also said the sun was in the center and added to Copernicus.
The scientist that made highly accurate measurements that first disapproved the theories of Ptolmy and Copernicus was called Brahe.
Aristotle does not belong in the list because he did not make significant contributions to the field of astronomy like the others did. Galileo, Kepler, and Copernicus are known for their revolutionary work in advancing our understanding of the universe through their observations and theories.
Copernicus challenged Aristotle's theories of planetary motion due to observations that didn't align with the geocentric model, particularly the retrograde motion of planets. Through his own observations and mathematical calculations, Copernicus proposed a heliocentric model where the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun, providing a simpler explanation for the observed phenomena in the sky.
Galileo Galilei was the Italian astronomer who supported Copernicus's theories by using his own observations through a telescope to provide evidence for the heliocentric model of the solar system.
The main response to his theory came from the Catholic Church. In this time period the church taught that man was the center of the universe and his theory proved that wasn't true. The church put him on trial for questioning the dogma that they preached. Others were very careful not to have the church turn their eye on them.

The ideas of universe and humanity changed in many ways from medieval through scientific revolution. First, scientists started to question Aristotle's ideas, and they tried to use reason. Second, scientist started to not include Christian ideas in their methods. Lastly, scientist started to develop experimental method to test their theories and prove them. Aristotle believed that earth was the closest planet to heaven, and other was crystal that orbits around the earth. Copernicus started to question his idea and he concludes that sun was in the middle of all planets. Furthermore, he believed other planets rotate around the sun. After his theory, other scientist started to clarify Copernicus' theory. For example, Kepler found out planet move in orbital pattern, and he used the ideas of Brahe. Scientist started to think "outside of the box", and they tried to not use Christianity like Aristotle did. Copernicus Hypothesis was the first thing that started to use reasoning, which was an educated guess. After him, scientist start to make educated guesses such as Brahe, Kepler, Newton, Galileo, and etc. government did not respect the scientist's idea because they were against Christianity. For example, Galileo was imprisoned because he supported Copernicus's hypothesis and proved Aristotle's theories wrong. The new method was among scientists, which was called experimental Method. It was used first by Galileo, and he tried to prove his theory with it as well other scientists' theories. Other scientists started to follow his method after him like Newton who found out about universal gravitation. He Believed that everybody would get attracted to each other depend on their distance among them. In general it meant humans would interact with other things or humans if they have same interests and view toward the world.
Aristotle's aristotle aristotle Aeropostale
Theories about what he learned!
in the late 1700s
the scientist who came up with these theories are unknown
