they proved that the earth rotate around the sun not the other way making people doudt the ancient greek authorities
no people did not belive that Copernicus model was correct. he thought that the moon revolves (turns) around the earth and the people thought something else (don't know sorry)
He said the world orbited the sun, people didnt like this because they believed everything revolved around us, earth!
Contrary to most people of the 14th Century, Copernicus believed that the Earth revolved around the sun. Galileo later proved Copernicus' theory to be correct.
It was the first theory that said that the universe does not revolve around the Earth; instead we revolve around the sun. It discredited many people's theories and modern belief at the time. It is also the proven theory that we believe in today.
The circumference of the earth at the equator is about 40,075 kilometres. People vary greatly in height. Let me suggest an average height of, say, 137 centimetres. Then the number of people would be 40,075 km / 137 cm or about 39,000,000. About the population of Poland.
There is no "why", because it doesn't make sense. The equatorial circumference of the Earth is about 24,900 miles. If you try to arrange six billion things along that line, you can only allow an average of about 1/4 inch per each ... hardly a "stretch".
All the veins in your body can stretch twice around the earth.
Well my good sir, it can stretch around the earth 10x fold. This has been proven by Harvard medical examinations, on the 6th of November 2005. By scientist and fellow doctor Jerry Wilson.
If we stretch the DNA strand in a human cell, it can reach about 6 feet in length. Since the Earth's circumference is about 24,901 miles, a single DNA strand from a human cell could circle the Earth around 7,412,320 times.
About 88 Earth days.

The gravitational force between Earth and the Sun provides the centripetal force needed to keep Earth in orbit. This force keeps Earth moving in a circular path around the Sun.
All of the nerves together in your body are long enough to stretch around the entire Earth 2 1/2 times.
Just after the creation of the earth people needed to defend themselves. Martial arts (art of war) was made around 5000BC to stop or kill an attacker in order to protect the people you love.
