→What happend to Copernicus and Keppler?: the 1800s brought the most compelling arguments that geocentrism was scientifically wrong
::Obviously, but the article's second paragaph is still pretty bizarre from a history-of-science perspective. At least in Protestant countries, the geocentic view was replaced long before the 1800s. Maxwell may have convinced a few stragglers, but I never heard that. I would love to see a reference if it's true. [[User:Ga ohoyt|Ga ohoyt]] 21:53, 5 June 2007 (EDT)

::: Yes, the geocentric view replaced the heliocentric before the 1800s. But the 1800s brought the most compelling arguments that geocentrism was scientifically wrong. [[User:RSchlafly|RSchlafly]] 01:57, 6 June 2007 (EDT)
