Scientific Revolution Concept Map Overview

The Scientific Revolution was a period from roughly 1543 to 1687 when European thinkers changed how people studied nature. It divides into astronomy, the new physics, scientific method, and the institutions that spread new knowledge. A concept map lets you see how these branches depend on each other.

  • Astronomy: Copernicus, Kepler and Galileo challenged Earth-centered models.
  • New Physics: Newton's laws of motion and universal gravitation unified the field.
  • Scientific Method: Bacon and Descartes stressed observation, experiment and reason.
  • Institutions: Royal societies and academies shared findings and results.
