the heliocentric theory is the theory that the sun is in the center of the universe. the geocentric theory is the theory that the earth is in the center of the universe
Geocentric models had the earth as the center of the universe with the sun and all the planets orbiting it. Heliocentric models (the current accepted ones) have the sun as the center, with the earth and planets orbiting it.
Geocentric was the idea developed by the Greek philosopher Aristotle of an earth-centered view of the solar system. With Christianity's influence, people had thought that God put Earth in the center of the universe. Heliocentric came later on by Italian astronomer Galileo that the sun was put at the center of the solar system while Earth and all the other planets orbit around it.
Ptolemy created the geocentric theory of the universe and Nicolous Copernicus created the heliocentric theory of the universe.
He was revolutionary man, demolishing the geocentric theory (it was a struggle) and building the heliocentric theory. The geocentric theory states that the Earth was at the centre of the universe. The heliocentric theory says that the Sun was at the centre of the universe. Neither is correct, but the heliocentric one was closer, way closer.He came up with theories to better society
Neither, The Geocentric theory was created by a student of 'Plato's' by the name of Ptolemy. The Heliocentric theory was by Copernicus.
If you mean what scientist created the heliocentric theory, it was Nicolaus Copernicus. Based on astronomical observations, he determined that the Ptolemaic geocentric theory was incorrect, and replaced it with his own heliocentric theory, which placed the sun at the center of the universe, and had planets orbiting the sun.
The Geocentric Theory is about how everything revolves and the Earth and the Heliocentric Theory is how everthing revolves around the Sun.
The heliocentric theory is the idea that planets rotate around the sun, where the geocentric theory said that everything orbited around Earth.
The heliocentric theory is the idea that planets rotate around the sun, where the geocentric theory said that everything orbited around Earth.
The geocentric theory says the Earth is the center of the universe, everything revolves around it. The heliocentric theory says the Earth revolves around the Sun, the Sun revolves around the center of the Milky Way Galaxy, and the Milky Way is floating away from the sight of the Big Bang.
Ptolemy created the geocentric theory of the universe and Nicolous Copernicus created the heliocentric theory of the universe.
The Geocentric Theory states that the Earth is the center of the universe, and that all other objects orbit around it. The Heliocentric Theory states that the Sun is the center of the universe, and all other objects orbit around it. Of course, the Heliocentric Theory is correct, since all astronomical objects orbit around the Sun.
Nicolaus Copernicus challenged the geocentric theory and presented the heliocentric theory. The heliocentric system placed the sun at the center of the universe.
that the world was heliocentric not geocentric aka sun centered universe and earth centered universe

Neither, The Geocentric theory was created by a student of 'Plato's' by the name of Ptolemy. The Heliocentric theory was by Copernicus.
Copernicus thought that is was heliocentric theory ( that the earth revolves around the sun) and Brahe thought that it was geocentric ( that everything revolves aroung the earth )
The name is of the general theory where celestial objects revolve around the Earth is known as the Ptolemaic system.
