The heliocentric theory is the theory that everything in the solar system revolves around the sun, in contrary to the geocentric theory, where they believed that everything revolved around the Earth. The heliocentric theory changed our viewpoints on the universe, and space and science. This theory was made by Nicolaus Copernicus, and backed up by Galileo Galilei.

The heliocentric theory is a model in which the Sun lies at the center of the universe and Earth and the other planets revolve around it. This theory was first proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus in 1543. This theory displaced the older theory presented by Ptolemy, which was a geocentric model. This model placed the earth at the center of the universe. Heliocentric theory is viewed as the basis for modern astronomy and the Scientific Revolution.

Were the texas servant girl murders the work of the first serial killer?
Korvikt [17]
He wasn't the first serial killer but was the first one that became known in the papers and was theatrical about it. A story was made and he did kill people before Jack the Ripper, so the story was of course new and important to people who liked the way the media approached it. There were serial killers before of course, but they weren't so important.
