The Scientific Revolution turned conventional wisdom about the universe on its head. Nicolaus Copernicus proposed a heliocentric model where the Earth and planets orbit the sun, challenging the geocentric view of Aristotle and Ptolemy supported by the Church. Galileo Galilei's observations of Jupiter's moons and innovations with the telescope provided evidence supporting Copernicus. Isaac Newton later developed the law of gravity and calculus, demonstrating through mathematics that a single force of gravity explains planetary motion. This established the scientific method of testing hypotheses through measurable evidence and experimentation.
