Welcome To The Third Copernican Revolution : 13.7: Cosmos And Culture : NPR

 As Earth became just another planet in the First Copernican revolution
and the Milky Way just another galaxy in the Second, our Universe would
become just another universe among countless others, each with its
properties, private histories, and creation events. This would, among
all of its remarkable consequences, be essentially a Third Copernican
revolution, now removing the centrality of our Universe in favor of an
eternally-existing multiverse.
