∙ 13y agoThe theory of cosmology that Copernicus proposed is called the heliocentric theory. This theory placed the Sun, rather than the Earth, at the center of the solar system, with the planets orbiting around it.
Nicolaus Copernicus was the promoter of the heliocentric theory, which states that the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun. He published his theory in his book "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium" in 1543.
It is believed that Nicolaus Copernicus first proposed the heliocentric theory.
He was the first person in history to create a complete and general system, combining mathematics, physics, and cosmology.
Copernicus proposed an idea that was never believed at his time . Aristotle and the Church had taught other people about the geocentric theory, but using observations and math, his heliocentric theory shows that the planets orbit the sun and not the earth.
Nicolaus Copernicus was the Polish scholar who published a heliocentric theory in his treatise 'On the Revolution of the Heavenly Spheres' in 1543. This theory proposed that the Sun, rather than the Earth, was the center of the universe, leading to significant changes in our understanding of the cosmos.

It is believed that Nicolaus Copernicus first proposed the heliocentric theory.
The heliocentric theory was devised by Nicolaus Copernicus, a Polish mathematician and astronomer who proposed that the Sun, not the Earth, was the center of the universe. His work laid the foundation for the Copernican Revolution and modern astronomy.

Nicolaus Copernicus put forward a heliocentric theory.
That was Galileo.He advocated the heliocentric theory of the solar system,proposed by Copernicus.
Nicolaus Copernicus proposed the heliocentric theory, which stated that the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun. This challenged the prevailing geocentric model that placed Earth at the center of the universe. Copernicus's theory laid the foundation for modern astronomy and our understanding of the solar system.
Kepler formulated laws of planetary motion, while Copernicus merely(!) proposed that the sun was the center of the solar system rather than the earth.
