Early Astronomers did not even have the compass. The early astronomers believed that the world was flat or round in shape.
In truth, all the ancient knowledge that was passed on to the astronomers were not in Human understanding. The building of Pyramids, the ancients scriptures and text that tells of the astronomical charts and calendars were handed down to them as gifts.
These were knowledge given by the gods. But the question is. Are the gods who gave us these answers are truly GODS ? or were they merely extra-terrestial beings advanced in knowledge and technology ?
Academicians will off course throw out this story due to our failure to comply to the facts or rationality of logic. But many things on Earth defies the very fabric of common beliefs on rationality and logic. For instance, can we prove the existence of gravity or see gravity ? We cant. But we know that it exist. So there is your proof that such things DO exist. We as humans have to just remain to have the faith that many questions will go unanswered.

Why did early astronomers believe the geocentric model was true?
Because they thought that planets moved on little circles that moved on bigger circles, and they didnt have modern technology like other astronomers had
Why were these early astronomers shunned by finding the geocentric model?
astroneomers were not shunned because of the geocentric model but the heliocentric model (with the sun in the middle of the universe). This was because religious leaders believed that god created the earth as the center of the universe and this idea was believed by nearly everybody.
What astronomers are from the early 1400s?

What are the dark gray spots on the moon?
The darker areas on the Moon are called "maria," Latin for "seas," because Early astronomers thought they were seas. In fact they are dry plains caused by lava flows from early impacts by asteroids. They simply reflect less light than the highlands around them. The source below is an excellent collection of fine photographs of the Moon.
How the atmosphere hydrosphere geosphere and biosphere are each related to the death of stars that occurred billions of years ago?
The early Universe basically only consisted of hydrogen, and small amounts of helium. Heavier elements were created in the center of stars - these materials got into space, mainly through supernova explosions, and became part of newer solar systems.
What did the early astronomers think the difference between the solar system and the universe?
They thought it was a explosion in the universe so they sent astronauts into space.
The belief of early astronomers that the Earth was the center of the universe is called the?
geocentric theory

Why do the astronomers believe the early universe was hot and dense?
Because there is a belief that the galaxies move away from you once you walk
How do astronomers find out about changes in galaxies over time?
Astronomers can watch galaxies that are far away. Since the light takes billions of years to reach us from the farthest known galaxies, they would be watching galaxies in the early Universe. It turns out, from such observations, that the Universe is changing.
Why did early astronomers believe the geocentric model was true?

How do early astronomers use telescopes?
The telescope wasn't invented until about 1604, so "early" astronomers had no telescopes.
What scientific skills did early astronomers use?
EARLY astronomers primarily used mathematics; that's why so many "early astronomers" are described as "mathematician and astronomer". Until the invention of the telescope in the early 1600's, there were no astronomical tools beyond the octant.
When astronomers say that the universe became transparent years after the big bang what do they mean?
In the early period after the Big Bang, the universe consisted of a plasma of nuclei, electrons and photons. These protons were bound in the plasma and not free to move about. About 0.4 million years after the Big Bang, when the universe had cooled to around 4000 K, photons stopped being in thermal equilibrium with matter: the universe became transparent to photons - light could move about.
How the universe was formed Jewish view?
