According to Ptolemy What was the position of the earths universe how did Coperniscus's view differ?

According to Ptolemy, the Earth was at the center of the universe in a geocentric model, with the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars revolving around it in complex orbits. This view dominated for centuries until Copernicus proposed a heliocentric model, placing the Sun at the center of the universe and asserting that the Earth and other planets orbit around it. Copernicus's model simplified the understanding of celestial movements and challenged the long-held Ptolemaic system.

How many months after earths perihelion position does earths aphelion position occur?

Earth's aphelion position occurs approximately six months after its perihelion position. Perihelion, when Earth is closest to the Sun, typically occurs around early January, while aphelion, when Earth is farthest from the Sun, usually takes place in early July. This timing is a result of Earth's elliptical orbit around the Sun.


A famous astronomer who believed the earth was the center of the universe?
