Mikołaj Kopernik
Suhtumine astroloogiasse

Kõikidel tolle ajastu astronoomidel oli mingi seos astroloogiast või arvamus selle kohta. Kopernik on selles küsimuses erandlik, pole säilinud mingeid andmeid kuidas ta suhtus astroloogiasse. Temast järel jäänud teostes ega kirjades ei mainita astroloogiat üldse. Ka Kopernikut tundud või temaga kirjavahetuses olnud inimesed ei ole ülestähendanud Koperniku suhtumist astroloogiasse. Seda ajastut arvestades, kus pea iga astronoom tegeles ka astroloogiaga, näib Koperniku selline vaikus viitavat pigem skeptilisele suhtumisele. Samas on Koperniku ainus õpilane Rhäticus (Georg Joachim von Lauchen) tuntud oma astroloogia huvide poolest. Isegi oma Koperniku maailmasüsteemi tutvustavas, veel Koperniku eluajal ilmunud raamatus "Narratio prima de libus revolutionum Copernici" (ilmus Danzigis 1540, "Esimene aruanne Koperniku revolutsioonilisest raamatust", tuntud lihtsalt kui "Esimene aruanne" või "Narratio prima") kirjutas ta mitu korda astroloogiast.

See on põhjus, miks tuli Koperniku lugu panna mujale teemasse.

Copernicus' Last Moments, by Lesser
Quote:
Death
Copernicus died in Frauenburg (Frombork) on 24 May 1543. Legend has it that the first printed copy of De revolutionibus was placed in his hands on the very day that he died, allowing him to take farewell of his life's work. He is reputed to have awoken from a stroke-induced coma, looked at his book, and then died peacefully.

Copernicus was reportedly buried in Frombork Cathedral, where archeologists long searched in vain for his remains. In August 2005, a team led by Jerzy G±ssowski, head of an archaeology and anthropology institute in Pułtusk, after scanning beneath the cathedral floor, discovered what they believe to be Copernicus' remains. The find came after a year of searching, and the discovery was announced only after further research, on November 3, 2008. G±ssowski said he was "almost 100 percent sure it is Copernicus." Forensic expert Capt. Dariusz Zajdel of the Central Forensic Laboratory of the Polish Police used the skull to reconstruct a face that closely resembled the features — including a broken nose and a scar above the left eye — on a Copernicus self-portrait. The expert also determined that the skull belonged to a man who had died around age 70 — Copernicus' age at the time of his death. The grave was in poor condition, and not all the remains of the skeleton were found; missing, among other things, was the lower jaw. The DNA from the bones found in the grave matched hair samples taken from a book owned by Copernicus which was kept in the library of the University of Uppsala in Sweden.

In 2005, specialists at the central crime laboratory in Warsaw created a reconstruction of Copernicus' face based on the skull. The BBC website contains a portrait of what Copernicus may have looked like based on this effort.
