Copernicus
Galileo.
The heliocentric, or Sun-centered, system was first theorized by Nicolaus Copernicus.
The sun-centered model of the solar system states that the planetes orbit the sun. In this model, everything in the solar system orbits the sun and so the sun is the center, hence the name. While all scientists accept this model today, there was a long period of time where people believed that everything in the solar system orbited the Earth. This was called the geocentric model of the solar system.
The heliocentric theory was originated by Copernicus.
Both the Copernican and Ptolemaic models were geocentric theories that sought to explain the motion of celestial bodies, particularly the movement of the Sun, Moon, and planets in relation to Earth. However, the key difference between the two theories lies in their proposed structure of the solar system, with Copernicus advocating a heliocentric model (Sun-centered) while Ptolemy supported a geocentric model (Earth-centered).
a sun centered model
The Heliocentric theory.
Based on my teacher Nicolaus Copernicus is the one who develop that theory....
Gallieleo Gallilie
No Nicolaus Copernicus did not believe in the earth centered theory he believed that the earth and other planets center and revolve around the sun.
Nicolaus Copernicus
that the world was heliocentric not geocentric aka sun centered universe and earth centered universe
Religion was debunked,.
Galileo.
The heliocentric, or Sun-centered, system was first theorized by Nicolaus Copernicus.
A geocentric theory is one that states the universe is centered by Earth. Geo means earth. The old Ptolemaic Model of the universe has earth as the center. A heliocentric theory is one that is centered by a source of heat. Helio = heat. It basically states that the sun is the center of our galaxy. (Copernican Model)
