Copernicus and the trial of Galileo
Heliosentrism was the idea that the sun is the center of the earth. This was proven by science in the 16th century but it went against the church's geosentrism , so the church did everything in it's power to stop it. Since the church was so powerful they got the person who tried to teach the world Heliosentrism arrested and banned from teaching plus all Heliosentrism books were banned and removed from stores. They had a trial for Galileo in 1633 and they said that Heliosentrism could now only be taught as a hypothoseis and not as fact of course that has changed now.

Scientific Revolution: The Scientific Method
The scientific method is a group of steps that try to prove some one's idea or theory. It start's when some one see's something that is diffrent from what they already knew or believed. Like when Charles Darwin went to the Galapogos island's and seen birds that looked diffrent, he wondered why so he conducted a theory that said that any living creature, over time, changes it lifestlye to adapt to it's enviorment. So he doubted the bible and thought that human's adapted to become as smart and useful as we are today.
