Who was the last person the orbit earth?

Where did Galileo Galilei believe the earth was in the cosmos?
Galileo Galilei believed that the Earth was not the center of the universe, contrary to the prevalent belief at the time. Instead, he supported the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus, which positioned the Sun at the center of the solar system with the Earth and other planets orbiting around it.
What did Galileo observe to Mae him conclude that your solar system was heliocentric?
Galileo saw the four moons of Jupiter orbiting Jupiter, so he knew that the planets didn't orbit around the Earth.
How did Galileo's observation of Jupiter's moons help to show that the geocentric explanation is incorrect?
Galileo's observation of Jupiter's moons provided direct evidence that not all celestial bodies revolve around the Earth. By observing the moons orbiting Jupiter, he showed that there are objects in the universe that do not orbit the Earth, contradicting the geocentric model which placed Earth at the center of the universe with all celestial bodies orbiting around it.
How did Galileo's observation of Jupiter moons help show that the geocentric explanation is incorrect?
Galileo's observation of Jupiter's moons orbiting another planet showed that not all celestial bodies revolved around Earth, contradicting the geocentric model that placed Earth at the center of the universe. This supported the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus, which placed the Sun at the center with planets, including Earth, orbiting around it.
What is the moon doing while earth is orbiting the sun?
while the earth is orbiting the sun the moon is orbiting the earth
What observational data required the revision of the early geocentric model?
The observation of the moons orbiting the planet Jupiter made by Galileo. This proved that not everything revolved round Earth/Rome.
What planet did the Galileo spacecraft slam into in 2003 after orbiting it for nearly eight years?
After circling the Jovian System for more than 7 years, Galileo had nearly depleted the propellant needed to point its antennae toward earth and adjust its flight path. While still in controllable the spacecraft was placed on a course to crash into Planet Jupiter, a manoeuvre designed to eliminate the risk of Galileo colliding with the moon Europa and contaminating its pristine surface.
Where is the moon situated?
The last time I looked it was still orbiting the Earth at a distance of about 384,399 km
Is the Mir space stAtion still orbiting?
No. It crashed back to earth in the late 90's.
What is earth orbiting the sun?
Earth orbiting the sun is a planet that is attracted to a star.
What year was it when Galileo used a telescope to observe 4 moons orbiting Jupiter?
