The scientist associated with the heliocentric theory of planetary rotation is Nicolaus Copernicus. He proposed that the Sun, rather than the Earth, is at the center of the universe, with the Earth and other planets orbiting around it. This revolutionary idea was detailed in his work "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium," published in 1543, and laid the foundation for modern astronomy. Copernicus' theory challenged the long-held geocentric view that placed the Earth at the center of the universe.
