    This document discusses the Scientific Revolution that occurred between the 15th-17th centuries. Key developments included Copernicus proposing the heliocentric model of the solar system, Galileo's astronomical observations supporting this model and getting in conflict with the Church, and Giordano Bruno proposing that the Sun was a star and the universe was infinite. The consequences of these scientific advances included conflicts between science and religion, a loss of human primacy in the universe, and a practical application of scientific knowledge. The document also discusses epistemology as the theory of scientific knowledge.
