Nicolaus Copernicus. In the 16th century he formulated the heliocentric model of the solar system (published in De revolutionibus orbium coelestium, 1543).

(An earlier heliocentric idea was proposed by the ancient Greek astronomer Aristarchus of Samos, but Copernicus developed the influential, modern mathematical model.)
