Copernicus
Polish economist, physicist, astronomer, mathematician, mechanic and, in general, an icon of science. He was the first to prove that he is not the Earth, as Ptolemy said, but the sun is the center of the universe and all the planets move around the sun. For this theory, the Catholic Church did not like him. Thanks to his writings, Copernicus was able to “open” space for science, which contributed to his later study.
Copernicus died in 1543, at the age of 70. His burial was conducted only in 2005, and thanks to two hairs left in his book, it was possible to make an examination and confirm that the remains belong to an astronomer, mathematician and mechanic.
