"Little Commentary"

In my 40-page manuscript, Little Commentary, i've detailed seven basic axioms:

  • There is no one centre in the universe.


  • The Earth's centre is not the centre of the universe.


  • The centre of the universe is near the sun.


  • The distance from the Earth to the sun is imperceptible compared with the distance to the stars.


  • The rotation of the Earth accounts for the apparent daily rotation of the stars.


  • The apparent annual cycle of movements of the sun is caused by the Earth revolving round it.


  • The apparent retrograde motion of the planets is caused by the motion of the Earth from which one observes.


  • I shall base my conclusions and ideas on these seven axioms and nothing else! This is Nicolaus Copernicus, signing off.
