Nicolaus Copernicus was a Polish astronomer monk of the Renaissance who formulated the heliocentric theory of the solar system, conceived in the first instance by Aristarchus of Samos. His book "On the revolutions of the celestial spheres" is usually considered the starting point of modern astronomy, as well as being a key piece in what was called the Scientific Revolution at the time of the Renaissance. Copernicus spent about twenty-five years working on the development of his heliocentric model of the universe. At that time it was difficult for scientists to accept it, since it was a real revolution.

seropon [69]
Of the list, the best answer is C) Automakers on the verge of collapse. GM, Chrysler and Ford (the Big 3 United States Automotive companies) were bailed out in 2009 following their request for a rescue bailout. This was controversial because, like other corporate bailouts that occurred at the time, the concept of "fairness" felt at best subjective and at worst disregarded. Some companies were rescued while others were not, and the American people did not have the privilege of an enormous bailout.

Some action was taken to insure sub-prime mortgages, and thus to help protect homeowners struggling following the housing crisis, but this was less controversial and also did not happen on such a large and immediate scale.
