Nikolaus Copernicus

The Astronomer

(1473-1543)

Nicolaus Copernicus was a Polish astronomer whose proposal of a heliocentric model of the universe brought us out of the dark.

While at University, Copernicus read Euclid's Elements, and was inspired by the geometry to help pitch a model that showed circular orbits around the Sun.

Copernicus is here to bring you out of the shadow and into the light, as he will help you become a member of Pi Zeta Tau.
