Early Space Exploration
Nicolaus Copernicus (1473-1543)
Copernicus tried to move the Sun in the middle of solar system.
He came to the conclusion that earth spins on its axis once a day
Thought planets orbit in uniform circles (wrong!)

• His conclusion was that planets circle around the Sun in elliptical orbits with Sun not centered but at a focus
Johannes Kepler (1571-1630)
