Copernicus - The Sun Is at the Centre of the Cosmos

Modern research has broadly confirmed that copernicus put the sun in the middle of the cosmos and made the earth one of the planets orbiting it. He was trying to save features of classical astronomy that he thought were more important than geocentrism. The universe should be a harmonious unity whose most outstanding parts are heavenly orbs, which revolve in perfect uniform circles as aristotle and ptolemy had assumed. When i say orbs, i don't mean the visible planets. I mean transparent, rotating spheres on which the planets are seated,. like shining diamonds embedded in spinning fish bowls.
