Copernicus and Kepler broke centuries of assumed science by disproving geocentricism and promoted their own heliocentric views. Copernicus introduced and shocked the medieval world by claiming that the earth was not the center of the universe. Kepler progressed this concept by claiming that there was not a "mover of the planets" but rather a force (perhaps his conception of gravity) that moved the planets and caused rotations.
