For you, the fact that the Earth rotates around its axis and around the sun is precisely a fact, and not a hypothesis, fantasy or nonsense. But do not think that as soon as Nicolaus Copernicus spoke about this, people immediately understood the structure of the solar system. It took about 150 years for a new scientific hypothesis to establish itself in the minds of scientists, and just as long for it to appear in school textbooks. It's a long story. And it would never have started if one spring day an uninvited guest had not knocked on the house of Copernicus. His name cannot be found in any textbook, but it was thanks to him that the revolutionary book “On the Rotations of the Celestial Spheres” appeared, outlining the heliocentric theory, which the author was not going to publish at all. Why did Copernicus flatly refuse to publish his work? How did the manuscript get to the mysterious stranger who not only edited and published it, but also became the first to propagate the heliocentric doctrine in the scientific community? Why didn't anyone believe him? This person can be called the producer of Copernicus. If not for Georg Joachim Rheticus, we would never have known about the great astronomer and his theory.
