Question How did the printing press affect the scientific revolution?
Please help me! I couldn't find much... Im doing an essay and I need to include this answer in it... So far, All i wrote(my words) is.. The printing technologies spread quickly, which led news, articles and books to travel around Europe at a much faster speed than before the printing press was invented. The discovery of the printing press helped in the scientific revolution. It helped publish theories, books and articles about new scientific discoveries and theories. An example of that is when Nicolas Copernicus published his theory called “De revolutionibus orbium coelestium “, and when Andreas Vesalius published his “ De humani corporis fabrica”. One reason many people learned about their theories is because they wrote them in books and articles. Since the printing press was available, those articles and books could be published and could spread all over Europe. Also, they weren’t as expensive as the hand written manuscripts, so more people could afford to read them and educate themselves about the new theories, experiments and inventions. Therefore, the printing press basically acted as a catalyst in the Renaissance, as it sped things up. thanks in advance. I just wanted to post this so that no one wastes their time and gives me the same thing that I wrote.. thankyou!!

Best Answer well, you look like you've nailed it. The only thing I might have added is some background on the times, the printing press, and how the reduction in the cost of books led to books no longer having to just be about religion and theology.
