Copernicus and the Trial Of GaHlileo

Heleocentrinism is the believe that the sun is the center of the universe/ the solar system.Geocentrinism , which came first is the believe that the earth is center of the universe. the Heleocentrinisn theory was not really believed until the 16th century because there were many disputes over it. But then came Galileo came and argued over his point. This theory was actually made by copernicus but after galileo invented the telescope he observed fro his self and found out Copernicus was right and after that he started telling people. Since Back in the days this was illegal he was put on trial by the catholic church because they believed different. He said the sun is the center of our universe and they said the earth was the center of the universe.Well by putting him on trial they wanted Galileo to admit that he was wrong or else they would kill him ,so he did.he did it because if ha stayed alive ha can at least he can spread the word and if he was dead that was it he would've never been able to do anything.Well at the end Galileo's theory came out during the scientific revolution.
