What are two factors that contributed to the rise of the scientific revolution in europe in the mid 1500s?

Two factors that helped to contribute to the scientific revolution in Europe in the mid 1500s were economic expansion and also the translation of ancient Greek texts into the vernacular. Economic development during the Renaissance period led to a new need for engineers, architects, and inventors to help to develop society which led to further development of scientific thought. Additionally with the rediscovery of Ancient Greek texts, thinkers of the time began to further develop empirical ways of thinking based in Aristotelian methods of logic and reasoning.
