Answer: The correct answer is : The most remarkable thing about Copernicus was that with his work he showed that the sun is at the center of the universe and not the earth as most Europeans believed.

Explanation: The Copernicus theory was called heliocentric meaning centered on the sun. The Catholic Church was one of its main opponents. This theory has been considered as the starting point of modern astronomy and scientific revolution.
