Copernicus was Emmett Brown's dog in 1955 named for famed scientist Nicholas Copernicus. Sometime between 1955 and 1985, Copernicus died and was replaced by Doc's new companion Einstein, continuing with the theme of pets named after famous scientists.
Copernicus, like Einstein later, was usually Doc's guinea pig in his experiments.
Copernicus found Doc's tombstone in Boot Hill Cemetery the night that Doc and Marty McFly found the DeLorean time machine in the Delgado Mine.
