WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO LEARN ABOUT NICOLAUS COPERNICUS?
Do you know who Nicolaus Copernicus is? Do you know what he's recognized for? It's important to learn about Nicolaus because he was a Renaissance mathematician and astronomer who formulated a comprehensive heliocentric model of the universe, which placed the Sun, rather than the Earth, at the center of the solar system. Everyone had believed that all the other planets revolved around the Earth and if it wasn't for Nicolaus Copernicus, today we'd probably still believe that. His work is extremely important for the advancement of science.
