''[[De revolutionibus orbium coelestium]]'' by [[Nicolaus Copernicus]], published in 1543, presented the first mathematically predictive heliocentric model of a planetary system. 17th-century successors [[Galileo Galilei]], [[Johannes Kepler]], and [[Sir Isaac Newton]] developed an understanding of [[physics]] which led to the gradual acceptance of the idea that the Earth moves around the Sun and that the planets are governed by the same physical laws that governed Earth.
