Heliocentric model
Discovery
Astronomers have speculated about the heliocentric (the idea that the earth revolves around the sun, not vice versa) since ancient times, but in 1543 Copernicus was the first to really show the math behind about it, to prove that it is the right concept.
How Important it is?
It took a while to for the concept universal.dan Copernicus finally accepted that formed the basis of a scientific revolution.
This eliminated many problems caused by the old geocentric model (it is difficult to make accurate calculations if you think the Earth is not moving), so that the first major changes in the fields of astronomy since the people realize the sun is a star and not an angry God.
Also, inventions that make us feel foolish to think we are the center of the universe. Thank you very much, Copernicus.
Movement of Stars and Planets
Discovery
It's hard to wade through several thousand years of ancient Babylonia, Egypt, Greece, India, China, Mayan and Persian astronomy to choose an interesting history, so I 'will edit and summarizes all of their achievements in one entry.
Maybe if they do not die of civilization they will get a better place on this list, but because they could not sustain them with other kingdoms of the ancient world .... They are in 10th place.
How important is all this?
Many of their accomplishments form the foundation of modern astronomy, but the fact that they track the movement of the stars and planets really are like a ball that spins a full overall.
The realization that stars in the sky following the pattern of fixed, predictable patterns, along with the discovery of planets that follow their own path, are two of the most basic, fundamental concepts astronomi.Dan also astrology, 2 areas of study related issues.
