Did Copernicus find out heliocentrism first?

Yes! Copernicus was the first to create the theory of heliocentrism(earth revolves around the sun with everything else). It was later revised by Kepler who explained the other planets went in ovals. After that Galileo used telescopes to confirm these theories.
