How did the Heliocentric Theory challenge the power structure of the world?

It challenged the authority of the church and put the scientific explanations in the first row.

Explanation:

After Copernicus's death, using the tools of the Inquisition, the church clashed with this scholarly giant, one of the fathers of the scientific revolution who disobediently defended Copernicus and scandalously denounced Ptolemy and Aristotle and the increasingly shaky Geocentric model - Galileo Galilei. After Bruno's tragic death, and as the conflict between church and heliocentric teaching became more acute, Galileo went to Rome in an attempt to persuade the Catholic Church not to forbid Copernicus's ideas. However, a decision had already been made and Galileo was strictly ordered not to represent such views. The year was 1616, and Galileo promised to obey the pope and not pour oil on the already heated fire of the conflict.
