Copernicus's Solar System

           

              Nicolaus Copernicus was born on February 19, 1473 and died on May 24, 1543 in Torun, Poland. The reason he died was because he had a stroke. He got or earned his education from the University of Padua from 1501 to 1503. The book he wrote was Revolutions of Heavenly Spheres. Nicolaus parents were Nicolaus Copernicus Sr. and Barbara Watzenrode. Nicolaus proved the geocentric theory wrong which means that, “Earth is the center of the Universe, not the Sun.” So he created his own theory called the heliocentric Theory which means that, “the Sun is the center of our Universe, not the Earth.” The Solar System is where we live at. Our Solar System contains eight planets, really small planet like Pluto, satellites like moon and other things that orbit the sun. The only reason we are living is because of Solar System, if there was no Solar System we would not be living. The sun is a star at the centre of our solar system. It is a huge spinning ball of hot gas that lights up the Earth and provides us with heat. If there was no Sun we will freeze to death.
