The fact checkers got the location of the whole world wrong.

Galileo Galilei said the sun was at the center, and the world goes around it. The fact checkers said that was incorrect and the world is at the center. The fact checkers placed Galileo Galilei under house arrest for saying the sun is at the center and the world goes around it. His book was banned.

They both said it.

In science, we credit the first person that said it ... Brahe said it as well as many many others ... what Galileo is credited with is the first observation of the heliocentric solar system using the telescopes he was making ...

In regards to the OP, it is spot on.
Also, Copernicus wasnt the first person that said it. He just developed a theory that survived the test of time.
