The Scientific Revolution • 1539 – Nicholas Copernicus publishes On the Revolutions of Celestial Spheres outlining his theory of a heliocentric universe. • How would this be received by the public? • Why would such a theory cause a scientific revolution? Few people realize that Copernicus was a mathematician, astronomer, physician, quadrilingual polyglot, classical scholar, translator, artist,Catholic cleric, jurist, governor, military leader, diplomat and economist.

  12. "Galileo, perhaps more than any other single person, was responsible for the birth of modern science.“-- Stephen hawking • Through careful astronomical observation Galileo proved the Copernican model of the universe, while observing sun spots, mountains and valleys on the moon, and Jupiter’s moons. • In addition, he made major contributions to the fields of motion and physics, while making practical scientific improvements to the telescope and military compass. • Galileo is perhaps the first to clearly state that the laws of nature are mathematical. Galileo was tried by the Spanish Inquisition for heresy and was forced to recant and live under house arrest.

  13. Other Scientific Discoveries: • Tycho Brahe: Danish Astronomer refuted the theory of the celestial spheres by showing the celestial heavens were not in an immutable or unchanging state of perfection as previously assumed by Aristotle and Ptolemy. • Francis Bacon: English philosopher, statesman, scientist, lawyer, jurist, author and father of the scientific method. • Isaac Newton: English physicist, mathematician, astronomer, natural philosopher, alchemist, and theologian who described universal gravitation and the three laws of motion, which dominated the scientific view of the physical universe for the next three centuries. • Andreas Vesalius: Often referred to as the founder of modern human anatomy, his On the Fabric of the Human Bodygreatly expanded human knowledge of the Skeletal, Muscular, Vascular, and Nervous Systems and the workings of the heart, brain, and abdominal organs. His dissected models and clear illustrations revolutionized how medicine would be studied in the future.
