I don't know, BUT the sun is NOT the center of the universe. We can't even see the whole universe, so there's absolutely no way of telling where the center is.
Copernicus hypothesized (discovered) that the Sun is the center of the universe and that the Earth isn't. (Actually the Sun is not the center of the Universe but it its the center of our solar system). At that time the church thought that the Earth was the center of the universe and they thought that they were right all the time and Nicolas Copernicus proved them wrong and they got angry at him for doing that because a lot of people didn't trust the church any more.
We are at the centre of the observable universe, keyword being 'observable'.
Heliocentric theory
No, that was what the scriptures said, but Copernicus's model, also promoted by Galileo, had the Sun at the centre instead.
Geocentric understanding places the Earth at the center of the solar system or universe (depending on what is being discussed, and when) A Heliocentric understanding places the sun at the center of the solar system, or universe.
Copernicus was credited with being the first astronomer to create a scientific-based heliocentric cosmology that showed the Earth from the center of the universe. He was the starting point of modern astronomy. (From wikipedia)

Heliocentric theory
The black hole at the center of the GALAXY provides the centripetal force that causes the galaxy to rotate. Yeah, everything is slowly spiraling inward, but it's happening very very very slowly. There's no way to orient the universe in a way that you can find the center. We are at the center of our personal observable universe, but that's meaningless.

The Sun is at the center of the Solar System. the SUN is the centre of our solar system.
God, who created the universe.

At first the Earth was the universe, and the sky was only a part of it, one of its appendages. The idea of us being a small part of a huge universe is a very recent concept, maybe only 200-300 years old.
1518 if you think of "discovery" as being found by Europeans.
the thoughts would be should i sighin this or not
