That science was a process of changing ideas
The Copernican Revolution was the shift from the Ptolemaic model of the heavens, which described the cosmos as having Earth stationary at the center of the universe, to the heliocentric model with the Sun at the center of the Solar System.
Because Nicolaus Copernicus ( a polish Scientest) was the strater of the Scientific Revoultion. And sometimes he gets full credit for it .On a nother note he was the founder/starter of the heilocentric theory whcih means that it was the idea for him that the sun is in the center of out solar system.Unlike plotomenys theory that the earth was the center of the universe.

It refers to Copernicus's idea of reconsidering the theory of the universe. Before him, no-one had thought to challenge the accepted ideas. Copernicus's theory was not totally right but he gave the lead to others and eventually a new theory was thrashed out that has been confirmed by later discoveries.
The discovery that the Earth revoled around the Sun
isn't that the time when Copernicus turned the beliefs of science and maths on its head
It relates to the theory of Copernicus that the Earth rotates daily on its axis and, with the other planets, revolves around the sun. Heliocentrism [See Link]
Galileo supported the Copernican system, but Aristotle did not. The Copernican system was a belief that the sun was the center of the solar system.
The Ptolemaic Model followed a geocentric model of the solar system. This was then challenged by Nicolaus Copernicus, who claimed a heliocentric model which sparked an integral part of the Scientific Revolution called, the Copernican Revolution. Copernicus' proposal was followed by the Tychonic Model, with attempted to compromise with the geo- and heliocentric models. Then, Kepler improved by suggesting elliptical orbits. The Copernican Revolution came to a close with further speculation from Galileo Galilei and Isaac Newton TL;DR Because they were wrong
Copernican concentrism states that the sun was the center of the Solar System, with the planets revolving around the Sun. Copernicus was an astronomer who lived from 1473-1543.

That science was a process of changing ideas
Part of why the Copernican revolution was so important is because it changed how people viewed the word. Before Copernicus, they believed in Ptolemy, who thought that the earth was flat.

The critical realization that Earth is not at the center of the universe is now known as the Copernican Revolution. The idea that neither Earth nor Sun occupy a special place in the universe is known as the "Copernican Principle". This hypothesis is scientifically classified as a "Principle of Mediocrity".
