Church views on Copernicus and Galileo’s theories -> Inquisition and what happened
|
Church said (and everyone had to believe) that earth was center of the heavens and all planets including sun rotated around the earth. Copernicus was Polish scientist who said that earth was NOT the center of the heavens (1543), but he only used math, not telescope. He dies and publishes his book, Church tries to ban his book, but too late, most have already read it. Galileo, Italian scientist, used telescope to prove Copernicus was right. Galileo writes a book about his discoveries but tries to respect the church by making it a dialogue between three friends and calls it fiction. Church gets mad and he faces INQUISITION because what he says goes against bible but only gets house arrest. |
