DESCRIPTION:The early Heroes of the Heliocentric Universe — Copernicus (
 1543) and Galileo (1632) — were pretty much entirely wrong about cosmolo
 gy\; in the case of Copernicus everyone knew it\, in the case of Galileo n
 obody much cared. Kepler (1609) got it right and realised that that the is
 sue was a new physics to explain the cosmos\, but he was bat-sh*t insane. 
 Moral of the story? Bat-sh*t insane is the way to go.
