While many say it was capernicus I think it was actually " Aristarchus" a couple hundred years before Capernicus.
Copernicus
Since the ancient times of Greek philosophy the heavenly realm was divided from the earthly sphere. That the universe was centered around the earth, and often in particular some special earthly city seemed obvious, and enjoyed the backing of ecclesiastical authority by the time the heliocentric heresy rose to attack it. In science, evidence trumps theory. Heliocentrism loosened the grasp of ecclesiastical authority in the domain of science, which was bound to generate substantial controversy at that time. Today the major scientific controversies occur as they conflict with political ideology.
I believe its a greek coin but i may be wrong
they proved that the earth rotate around the sun not the other way making people doudt the ancient greek authorities
The Greek letter π was adopted for the number from the Greek word for perimeter "περίμετρος", first by William Jones in 1707, and popularized by Leonhard Euler in 1737.
Copernicus
Copernicus.
I believe that was Aristotle. This would be a geocentric universe. Galileo however, knew the universe was heliocentric and was persecuted for it.
Aristotle did not believe that the Sun was at the center; he thought Earth was. Aristarchus, a Greek astronomer, is probably the earliest person we know of who supported a heliocentric solar system.
I believe it is "helio-", as in a heliocentric model of the Solar System.
The first person to theorize a heliocentric solar system was Aristarchus, a greek philosopher. However, he was ridiculed, and the first person to have the idea accepted was Copernicus.
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 universeGeocentric 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.

I believe it is. The Greeks were one of the first known people to exist. Egyptians and Africans were around the same time as the age of the Titans.
