Orb: On the Movements of the Earth
Chi. Chikyuu no Undou ni Tsuite
Twelve-year-old Rafal is convinced that living rationally is the path to respect and success. So he announces his plan to study theology—the most prestigious field in early 15th century Poland. Then a mysterious stranger crosses his path and everything changes. Suddenly, Rafal abandons his safe choice for something that actually excites him: astronomy. He becomes obsessed with proving heliocentrism—that Earth orbits the Sun. Problem is, the Church runs everything and they're committed to the opposite view. Anyone who disagrees pays a horrific price. Rafal throws himself into the work anyway, struggling to gather precise measurements and build solid theories. But his real problem isn't the science itself—it's keeping it secret. If he's discovered, he'll end up like the other heretics the Church has made examples of.
