Excuse me, I said since the publication of the Dialogues, that is, 1632. Tycho Brahe had been dead thirty years at that time.

[curiosity]

Woops, my mistake. Nevertheless, Tycho's model was just as consistent with Galileo's observations as was the model of Copernicus. And the Dialogues contained no new data or evidence regarding geocentrism that Galileo had not disseminated by 1616.

At any rate, most astronomers in Galileo's time were geocentrists. Kepler and Galileo were the exceptions. It took some time for the Copernican model to take root, and it was not universally accepted until the discovery of Newton's laws.
