Nicolaus Copernicus
Was an astronomer that proposed that the Sun, not the Earth, was the center of the Solar System.
Such model was called heliocentric system and started the scientific revolution.
Many aspects of the motion of the planets, aspects that were explained by complex explanations of the Ptolemy’s geocentric model made Copernicius felt that a representation of the solar system should be coherent. To Copernicus, Ptolemy’s system was ugly and therefore could not represent the work of a divine Creator. -
Period: 1543 to
Scientific Revolution

Isaac Newton
He was an English mathematician, astronomer, and physicist that developed a mathematical equation describing gravity, and create the laws of motion
The three laws of motion describe the relationship between a body and the forces acting upon it, and its motion in response to those forces.
Newton's published the Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy in 1687, with the publication of the Principia, it seemed as if the science of mechanics was complete. -
Newton Laws, a new way of thinking
The laws of gravity and motion solved all the questions about the external forces acting on objects,
The relationship between applied force and motion was now established. The single cosmological force, gravity, had been completely described. Objects moved in accordance with strict natural laws could be understood mathematically. -
The heliocentric model
The acceptance of the heliocentric model instead of the geocentric model was one of the most important issues of all the scientific revolution -
