Explanation:

Humanism was a European intellectual, cultural, and philosophical movement that took place during the Renaissance, starting in Northern Italy, and later expanded to the rest of Europe. Humanism was characterized by focusing on human being and human rationality as the center of the universe, rather than god, as it was believed in the previous centuries of the Middle Ages. It was inspired by classical philosophy, aesthetics, and ethics and it promoted the study of nature in a rational and empirical way.

In this context, scientists started to conduct experiments in order to understand how nature works and it led to the development of the scientific method. One of the great hallmarks of this process was the work of Galileo Galilei, an Italian physicist and astronomer, who is often considered as the father of the scientific method. His studies and observations of heavenly bodies with a telescope gave evidence for the Heliocentric model (in which the Earth rotates around the Sun), against the classical Geocentric model (in which the Earth is the center of the universe). This was the starting point of the Scientific Revolution, which continued with the studies of Kepler and Newton.
