German:
Nikolaus Kopernikus; Niklas Koppernigk
; 19 February 1473 – 24 May 1543) was a
Renaissance
-era mathematician and astronomer, who formulated a
model
of
the universe
that placed
the Sun rather than Earth at the center of the universe
, in all likelihood independently of
Aristarchus of Samos
, who had formulated such a model some eighteen centuries earlier.
