Nicolaus Copernicus was born on February 19, 1473, which would make him about 547 years old if he were still alive today.
Nicolaus Copernicus was primarily a mathematician and astronomer. He is best known for his heliocentric theory that the sun, not the earth, is at the center of the solar system. Copernicus also made significant contributions to the fields of mathematics, economics, and medicine.
Copernicus was concerned about the controversial nature of his heliocentric theory conflicting with religious teachings. He feared backlash from the church, as the theory contradicted the geocentric model supported by the Catholic Church at the time. Additionally, he wanted to refine his theories and gather more evidence before making them public.
Johannes Kepler found out that planets move in ellipses and move at variable speeds as they travel round the sun. The former theory of Copernicus was not wrong, but Kepler's theory was found to be more accurate when accurate observational methods were developed. Later Kepler's theory was backed up by theory when Newton's law of gravitation came along. However in the 20th century Einstein's theory of relativity produced some small corrections to the Kepler/Newton theory.
