Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Copernicus proposed that the Earth is not the center of the solar system, and that the Sun is the center. It's called heliocentric. He wrote a book summarizing all his ideas called De Revolutionbus. The Copernican Revolution though, is when a majority of the people started taking his ideas seriously and a major shift happened in what people think about the solar system.
