Nicholas+Copernicus+P5



= = Nickolas Copernicus was born in Thorn, Poland. He discovered that the earth moves around the sun. He went to a university of Bologan. There he study law and mathematic.

He’s true name at birth is Niclas Kopernik. For years he studied the stars and planets to see his theory correct.

He calculated his theory with European scholars. They greeted it with great enthusiasm. It was titled **__De revolutionibus orbium coelestium.__**

He’s work was published few weeks before he died. "Accordingly, since nothing prevents the earth from moving, I suggest that we should now consider also whether several motions suit it, so that it can be regarded as one of the planets. For, it is not the center of all the revolutions. Near the sun is the center of the universe.” He means that the universe doesn't revolve around the earth, but it revolves around the sun.
