The Copernican Revolution #3

Aristotle wanted to explain the universe philosophically and Ptolomy explains the universe in a more mathematical kind of way.
This is interesting because one thinks that they more or less thought of the universe the same way, but their interests were different.


Aristotle thought that there weren't any vacuums on Earth or the universe. The proof of this is that he said that matter and space are inseparable , that there couldn't not be any matter without space. If there in no matter, there isn't anything with which we cant define space.
