Describe the impact of the contributions of the scientists during the revolution by working on a 500-word blog post.

Science and religion are two different worldviews that never mix to each other. It is hotly debate long time ago that science and religion are always associated with confusions to different types of people whether what should people believe. On the other hand, during renaissance period the 14th to 17th centuries saw Europe undergo a "rebirth" in terms of its arts, politics, economy, and culture (Gaudio, 2020). On January 1, 1514, Nicolaus Copernicus, popularized his scientific findings that the earth revolves around the sun. It is significant since he was the first to postulate that the Earth rotates around the sun; otherwise, it probably would have taken much longer to do so (Wooten, 2020). Introduced the term, Heliocentric which defined as the astronomical model in which the Earth and planets revolve around the Sun at the center of the universe (Dreyer, 1953). In the year of  1666, Sir Isaac Newtown invented the telescope in England. A telescope is an apparatus to view the cosmological bodies above clearer and closed to each other. Up to this day, the invention is served as helpful to many scientist and a-like to see the heavenly above.In 1543 Nicolaus Copernicus published his book that changed the world called On the Revolutions of the Celestial Sphere.  The Renaissance mathematician and astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus made significant contributions to science by developing a new theory of the universe that put the sun, rather than the earth, at its center (West, 2023). He introduced the Copernican revolution in which the Copernican Revolution, as described by the Polish scientist Nicolaus Copernicus in the 16th century, was the transition from a geocentric understanding of the world, centered around the Earth, to a heliocentric understanding, centered around the Sun (Osler et.al, 2022). In the field of astronomy, Johannes Kepler, a German scientist, introduced laws of planetary motions in the year of 1609. According to his laws, it states that the planets orbit the Sun in elliptical orbits, one focus of the ellipse at the Sun; and (2) a planet orbits the Sun so that a line drawn from the planet to the Sun always sweeps out equal areas in equal times (West, 2023). In other field of study, in medical science Sir William Harvey explained the human anatomy regarding about the blood circulations throughout the body by publishing his own book in the year of 1628 (West, 2023). He added that the terms a circle of ceaseless motion described as the blood flows around the human body continuously. In general through the scientific revolutions, the world is now changing from its old paradigm and shifting into a new knowledge away from religious dogmas. Until this time, science is described as pragmatically driven; on the other hand, religion is described as operated by divine guidance Even if the two opposing views the science and religion has its own contrary views (Pilgrim, 1994). People still have its own freedom to choose what kind of believe systems there are going to hone.
