Copernicus, Nicolas (19 févr. 1473 – 21 mai 1543)
Description:
Nicolas Copernicus was the first European that wrote a book challenging the scientific principles that were currently accepted at the time. Though he did not do so in an aggressive way, more saying that this is a possibility, he got other scientists (natural philosophers) thinking about what else could also be wrong. This act of challenging current scientific authority would eventually lead to the Scientific Revolution.Ajouté au bande de temps:
