Ptolemy was a 2nd century Greek mathematician, geographer, and astronomer (lived from 100 to 170).

Nicolaus Copernicus  lived from 1473-1543.  He published his heliocentric theory at the very end of his life (in 1543), knowing how dangerously controversial it would be.

So, from mid 16th century (1543) back to mid 2nd century (Ptolemy's time), that would be 14 centuries between the two.

Serggg [28]

Yes because Thomas Paine wrote a pamphlet called Common Sense which actually inspired the Declaration of independence . Thomas Jefferson used it as a template when he wrote the Declaration of Independence, distilling many of Paine's ideas -- the natural dignity of humanity, the right to self determination.
