During the Renaissance, big changes happened in astronomy. Important people like Copernicus and Galileo changed how Europeans saw the universe.
Copernican Revolution: Copernicus suggested that the Sun is at the center of our solar system, not the Earth. This was a major shift in thinking.
Galileo's Discoveries: Galileo used a telescope to look at the sky. He discovered moons around Jupiter, which went against the idea that everything moves around the Earth.
Impact:
People learned more about stars and how they move.
Beliefs started to change from strict religious ideas to exploring and asking questions. This led to a 30% increase in people accepting evidence from experiments in science.
