The heliocentric model is considered one of the most important theories in the history of science. Copernicus did not publish his work in which he defended heliocentrism until 1543, the year of his death; however, his books would be included in the Index librorum prohibitorum, many years after his death, with the Galileo case.
The model of functioning of the Earth that Nicolás Copernicus described marked a change in the general thought of the society, since before this theory the opposite was thought and the Earth was seen as the center of the universe, this theory broke the beliefs traditional even those preached by the Catholic Church of the time.
