What Aristotle's beliefs about the sun?
He believed the sun orbited around the Earth.
How many times does the earth orbit round the sun?
Earth orbited the sun about ...... times a year!
What would happen if the earth orbited the sun exactly the same way as the moon orbited the earth?
allways one half of earth only will get sunlight
What planet is the closest planet to the sun to be orbited by a moon?
The Earth.
Who was the first American to orbit the sun?
No human has ever orbited the sun, unless you count living on planet Earth as it orbits the sun.
What suggested that the sun and moon orbited earth and the rest of the planets orbited the sun?
The geocentric model, proposed by ancient astronomers like Ptolemy, suggested that the sun and moon orbited the Earth, while the planets revolved around the sun. However, observations by astronomers such as Copernicus, Galileo, and Kepler provided evidence for the heliocentric model, where planets, including Earth, orbit the sun. Galileo's telescopic observations, like the phases of Venus and the moons of Jupiter, supported this shift in understanding, demonstrating that not everything orbited the Earth. Kepler's laws of planetary motion further solidified the heliocentric model by explaining the elliptical orbits of planets around the sun.
What was the essence of Galileo's conflict with the catholic church?
the earth orbited around the sun bruh
How long did it take to make the first manned orbit around the sun?
Every person who has lived for more than 1 year has orbited the sun, since the earth does exactly that every 365 days. No person has ever yet orbited the sun while separated from the earth's surface.
What was Copernicus' theory about the sun and planets. how was it different from what people believed before?
Copernicus's theory was called the Heliocentric Theory. It said that the Earth and planets orbited around the sun, and the Sun was the center of the universe. The previous theory, mainly advocated by the Catholic Church, was called the Geocentric Theory; which stated that the Sun and planets orbited around the Earth, and that the Earth was the center of the Universe.
Is it true that Brahe was the first astronomer to understand that the planets orbited the sun in an ellipse?
No, Brahe did not believe in the heliocentric model; he proposed a geocentric model where planets orbited the Sun and the Sun orbited the Earth. It was Johannes Kepler who later discovered that planets orbit the Sun in an elliptical path, using Brahe's detailed observational data.
What would Earth's orbit be if it orbited 96 percent closer to the sun than it does?
If Earth orbited 96% closer than it currently does, its orbit would be, on average, 3.72 million miles (6 million km).
How did scientist prove the moon revolved around the earth while revolving around the sun?
Galileo initially showed using phases of the planet venus that it orbited around the sun and not the earth, this supported a new model developed by Copernicus suggesting that the earth orbited the sun and not vice versa. It had always been assumed that the moon orbited the earth. Later with the invention of Newtonian physics, a more concise model of the solar system was developed using the laws of gravity explained that the much smaller earth would orbit around the much larger sun and that the smaller moon would orbit the larger earth.
