The heliocentric model states that the Earth and other planets rotate around the Sun. Scientists such as Johannes Kepler‚ Galileo Galilei and Isaac Newton were vital in proving that heliocentrism is true. This includes Galileo studies of the moons of Jupiter‚ Kepler’s Law of Planetary Motion and Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation. Kepler’s 3 laws of planetary

formulated a helio centric conception which meant that the sun was the center of the universe. and that the planets moved around the sun in an elliptical shape. His theory built the foundation of the new astronomy. Supporting the Copernican theory were Johannes Kepler and Tycho Brahe. Brahe complied over 20 years of astronomical data which Kepler used. He discovered 3 laws of planetary motion that confirmed and modified the Copernican theory. Next there was Galileo Galilei. He was the first European to

Then‚ Tycho Brahe continued the work on Copernicus’ heliocentric hypothesis. Brahe’s research was then passed down to Johannes Kepler‚ who created the first astronomical model of a heliocentric universe. In 1609 Kepler published The New Astronomy‚ which stated that the paths of planets are elliptical‚ not circular‚ and proved Copernicus’ heliocentric theories. After Kepler
