Aristotle believed that the Earth was at the center of the universe, with all other celestial bodies revolving around it in a series of concentric spheres. This geocentric view of the universe contrasted with the later heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus.
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.
