Nicolas Copernicus and Galileo Galilei both played pivotal roles in the Scientific Revolution by challenging the prevailing geocentric model of the universe. Copernicus proposed the heliocentric theory, suggesting that the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun, which shifted the framework of astronomy. Galileo built on this by providing empirical evidence through his telescopic observations, further validating the heliocentric model and promoting the use of experimentation and observation in science. Both figures emphasized the importance of questioning established beliefs and relying on evidence, laying the groundwork for modern scientific inquiry.

The people who were part of the scientific revolution was mainly thinkers. Copernicus, Galileo, Newton, and Kepler.

Galileo contributed to the Scientific Revolution by improving the telescope and supporting Copernicus's belief that the Earth revolves around the sun.

Copernicus created the mathematical theory to prove that the Sun, not the Earth, was the centre of our solar system. Galilei provided the calculations and observations to prove Copernicus' theory.
I am not sure they used similes. Copernicus postulated a sun-centered solar system through what today we would call reason and thought experiments. Galileo's careful observations through his telescope confirmed Copernicus's hypothesis.
