The Copernican Revolution occurred during the 16th century, primarily from the publication of Nicolaus Copernicus's seminal work, "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium," in 1543 until the early 17th century. This period marked the shift from the geocentric model of the universe, which placed the Earth at the center, to the heliocentric model, which positioned the Sun at the center. The revolution laid the groundwork for modern astronomy and challenged prevailing scientific and religious beliefs of the time.
