What was the change?
The Scientific Revolution is one of the most important revolutions because without science, our world would be very different. One can see examples of the heliocentric theory, the laws of gravity and a telescope.
The Scientific Revolution started in the 1550s do to people starting to make discoveries in other parts of Europe.This brought new ideas in physics, math, astronomy, and biology and went against the beliefs of the church. This made people think differently about the universe and how things came to be, and let them have their own ideas on why things were the way they were. This also allowed scientists to use logic and reason to test theories. People of The Renaissance questioned old beliefs like humanism. They started to get back into the concept that humans could do anything. the scientific revolution brought enlightenment. This means that it changed the way political and social scholars thought and it made them reject old and traditional ideas. Then, later on in the Reformation people started to question the Roman Catholic Church. Of course the church did not like that people started to question the teachings and ideas. The church was very against the concept of humanism while the scientists were very much for the concept of humanism. Clearly the scientific revolution made a huge impact of culture back then and in today's society.
