Nicolaus Copernicus a polish astronomer, mathematician, scientist, physician, priest adn states men realized that complex motions of planets could be readily explained by holding the sun, earths and planets move in orbits about that dazzling stars, it took 150 years to accept this notion, in the town of Torun in Poland at the age of eighteen Nicolaus entered the university at Cracow Poland attended classes that encompassed philosophy astronomy geometry and geography, study of astronomy was of great significance at that time, he studies in various place finally received Doctor of Laws degree from the university Ferrara in 1503, after finishing his studies at the age of thirty three went to Poland to take care of his ailing uncle the Bishop Waczenrode.
Copernicus took
the astronomical measurements of had poor instruments, were no more accurate
than Greeks, as a result of the mathematical and philosophy fromulations of the
theorem of universe the world marks him as a giant, to begin a genius, was
appointed professor of mathematics at the unit of written berg, he was welcomed
by Copernicus with the association for a period of 2 years, to publish his
findings, the result is the book entitled, at presently shortened to
revolutions Copernicus set up a general picture of the universe hits the sun
at the Centre and the earths revolving as a planet about the sun, he explained
reasons for seasons.
The erratic
motions of the planets sometimes moving forward and sometimes moving backwards,
he explained how motions were quite regular, sun is considered the center of
the moments of the planets, he gave detail account of the motions of the earth,
moon and planets and also showed that earth need not be center of the universe,
wrote a look suggesting that all the polish states should have the same coins
when Copernicus proposed the helio centric theory of the planetary system, he
was called fool by religious leaders inversion ordered that should be punished,
he escapes the wrath by concealing his book, revolution in science began in
Europe with Copernicus in 1540 when he suggested the theory of sun as the
center of solar system.
He published a
book on the motions of the sun and the planets, this he showed that all the
changing relations of these bodies can be most simply explain by theory, the
proof was given in Prindpia of newton, the same year William Shakespeare to the
wife a wool merchant in pisa, he mastered medicine mathematics, he worked as
professor of mathematics in the university of phsa, also worked at pradua in
venice, his fields of interest are physics mathematics and astronomy, he
developed interest not only in education but also in music and poetry, he is no
double a keen observer all the events in his life are very important while
doing prayer in a church he minded the swings lead him to invention of simple
pendulums, all the watches work on the principle of simple pendulums, he was
always fair and dark, he used to speak facts, a man from royal family designed
a machine for daring purposes Galileo declared boldly that the machine is
useful, Jawa tried to dismiss him from a job, he has become famous for his
research and lectures on motion and sun dial mechanics on stars in cosmos, it
was who first observed the moved in 1610 with a telescope and the satellite was
held attraction of telescope, early astronomers knew very little about stars
and it was not until Galileo turned his telescope on the skies that they began
to learn after wards people came to known eight stars, about comets were seen
before Galileo first used a telescope to observe the heavens in 1609.
Galileo called Maria on the whole the surface of moon is
rough, side towards earths way broken by several mountains these large several
smooth areas are called as Maria by Galileo, the first experiment is writs
pendulums or that of weights dropped from the learning tower of pysa, here and
there his ingenuity in conceiving experiments flared up, when he tried to
measure the velocity of light in order to ascertain whether its propagation was
instant, he paved the way to many discovery, main contribution to the science
was that of great teacher, he taught that mathematics measurements and
reproduction of phenomena under control and specified conditions are essential
to the study of nature, he made a final break from the tradition and led
physics on a new path from which there has been no deviation, his thought
experiments, his ability to use common experience his habit of logical
thinking the concise of thought experiment are essential to the generation.
First heirs in
this tradition, in a clear and lively language he wrote or published two
sciences in Netherlands in the form of conversation among three persons called
salivary, it has been observed that describe curved
path of some sort no one described, later he succeeded in proving, when he was
twenty two year old he wrote Labilancetta, he indicated the end product obtained
when metals, he explained natural motion
