The Scientific Revolution

Changing Views of the Universe  Until the mid-1500s, Europeans accepted the theory that the Earth was the center of the universe  Nicolaus Copernicus proposed the heliocentric theory- the sun stood at the center of the universe Most experts rejected this theory Most experts rejected this theory Some scientists (Brahe & Kepler) found evidence to support this theory Some scientists (Brahe & Kepler) found evidence to support this theory

Galileo  Galileo Galilei assembled a telescope, observed the moons of Jupiter orbiting Confirmed the heliocentric model Confirmed the heliocentric model  He was attacked for his discovery because it contradicted ancient views about the world  He was tried for his beliefs

A New Scientific Method

Bacon & Descartes  Bacon Stressed experimentation & reason Stressed experimentation & reason Wanted science to make life better for people by leading to practical technologies Wanted science to make life better for people by leading to practical technologies  Descartes Emphasized human reasoning as the best road to understanding “I think, therefore I am”

Scientific Advances  Isaac Newton- Proposed the law of gravity  Andreas Vesalius- Published On the Structure of the Human Body, which was the first accurate and detailed study of human anatomy  William Harvey- Described the circulation of blood for the first time & showed how the heart serves as a pump
