There were several. The ones that come to mind are Copernicus and Bruno (who was actually burnt at the stake).

Galileo did not propose a heliocentric theory, he agreed with Copernicus and his heliocentric theory. The Catholic church, at the time, disagreed and they held a huge amount of power and put him on trial.
If you mean what scientist created the heliocentric theory, it was Nicolaus Copernicus. Based on astronomical observations, he determined that the Ptolemaic geocentric theory was incorrect, and replaced it with his own heliocentric theory, which placed the sun at the center of the universe, and had planets orbiting the sun.
The heliocentric theory, proposed by Copernicus, states that the Sun is at the center of the solar system and that the planets, including Earth, orbit around it.
The heliocentric theory, proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus, states that the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun, contrary to the previously accepted geocentric model.
He was a Polish mathematician who disagreed with Ptolemy's view that the earth is the center of the universe. The heliocentric theory is the theory that the sun is the center of the universe, not the earth.
There was more than one astronomer who agreed with the heliocentric theory and was imprisoned for his investigations. The astronomers were Copernicus, John Dalton, Lamarck, and Galileo.

The heliocentric theory is the theory that the sun is the center of the universe, not the earth.
Geocentric theory
Geocentric theory
The Heliocentric Theory revolutionized our understanding of the universe by proposing that the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun, rather than the Earth being at the center. This theory challenged long-held beliefs and was a major advance in the field of astronomy. It paved the way for modern science and laid the foundations for further discoveries in physics and astronomy.

heliocentric theory, the theory of evolution, relativity theory
Copernicus discovered the heliocentric theory in 1510 and worked on it for four more years.
He was a Polish mathematician who disagreed with Ptolemy's view that the earth is the center of the universe. The heliocentric theory is the theory that the sun is the center of the universe, not the earth.
