title: Commentariolus text: Commentariolus The Commentariolus ("Little Commentary") is Nicolaus Copernicus's brief outline of an early version of his revolutionary heliocentric theory of the universe. After further long development of his theory, Copernicus published the mature version in 1543 in his landmark work, "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium" ("On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres"). Copernicus wrote the "Commentariolus" in Latin some time before 1514 and circulated copies to his friends and colleagues. It thus became known among Copernicus's contemporaries, though it was never printed during his lifetime. In 1533, Johann Albrecht Widmannstetter delivered a series of lectures in Rome outlining Copernicus' theory. Pope title: Commentariolus text: two epicycles, one greater than another.

The Society had just spent its book budget on a "History of Fishes", and the cost of publication was borne by Edmund Halley (who was also then acting as publisher of the "Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society"): the book appeared in summer 1687. Nicolaus Copernicus had moved the Earth away from the center of the universe with the heliocentric theory for which he presented evidence in his book "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium" ("On the revolutions of the heavenly spheres") published in 1543. The structure was completed when Johannes Kepler wrote the title: De revolutionibus orbium coelestium text: De revolutionibus orbium coelestium De revolutionibus orbium coelestium ("On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres") is the seminal work on the heliocentric theory of the Renaissance astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus (1473–1543). The book, first printed in 1543 in Nuremberg, Holy Roman Empire, offered an alternative model of the universe to Ptolemy's geocentric system, which had been widely accepted since ancient times. Copernicus initially outlined his system in a short, untitled, anonymous manuscript that he distributed to several friends, referred to as the "Commentariolus".

Coinciding with the Age of Enlightenment was the scientific revolution, spearheaded by Newton. This included the emergence of modern science, during which developments in mathematics, physics, astronomy, biology (including human anatomy) and transformed views of society and nature. While its dates are disputed, the publication in 1543 of Nicolaus Copernicus's "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium" ("On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres") is often cited as marking the beginning of the scientific revolution, and its completion is attributed to the
