Nicolaus Copernicus was not directly commissioned by any individual or organization to produce his work, "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium" (On the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres). Instead, he developed his heliocentric model of the universe independently over many years. However, he did receive some support from friends and fellow scholars, and the work was published with the encouragement of the astronomer Georg Tullius and later by the Protestant reformer Andreas Osiander, who wrote the preface to the book.
