What would be the next step in the scientific process for the Copernican heliocentric model?

In 1500s, Copernicus reintroduced the heliocentric model that the ancient Greeks had rejected, and it began to gain favor among some scientists. He suggested that the planets all orbit around the Sun in perfect circles, as shown in the figure to the right. This offers a much more elegant explanation of retrograde planetary motion than the geocentric model.
