He placed the sun in the middle with the planets orbiting it.
Saturn is the second largest known planet in our solar system, proceeding Jupiter and preceding Neptune, by mass, and Uranus, by volume.
A model is never wrong; it is merely more or less useful. In celestial navigation we continue to use the geocentric model of the Sun, Moon, stars and planets, because it makes the mathematical calculations much easier. (I spent 3 years teaching celestial navigation for the U.S. Air Force's Interservice Navigator Training School at Mather AFB, Sacramento, CA.) For anything beyond low-earth-orbit, the geocentric model does not represent reality in any meaningful way, and is not useful.
Yes.
Our solar system has 8 major planets, so the middle two major planets are Mars and Jupiter. If you count all major planets plus the 5 dwarf planets, the middle planet is Saturn:1. Mercury2. Venus3. Earth4. Mars5. Ceres6. Jupiter7. Saturn8. Uranus9. Neptune10. Pluto11. Haumea12. Makemake13. Eris
Depends on what you mean by a theory being real. As a theory it is real. People had thought about it and believed in it. But as a description of reality, it is wrong. The Geocentric theory puts the Earth in the middle, with the Sun and all planets orbiting around the Earth. By now, we're pretty darn sure that's not how it is. The Sun is in the middle, with the planets orbiting around the Sun.
He placed the sun in the middle with the planets orbiting it.
Middle English originated in England, around 1150 CE.
Of the eight planets, Earth, mars, Jupiter and Saturn are the four 'middle' planets.
The Sun's location is in the middle of the solar system and all of the planets orbit around it.
If you only count the 8 major planets, then the two middle planets are Mars and Jupiter.If you count all 13 major and dwarf planets, the middle one is Saturn.
Saturn is the second largest known planet in our solar system, proceeding Jupiter and preceding Neptune, by mass, and Uranus, by volume.
Galileo's observation was that all the planets revoled around the earth and he though earth was a middle planet

The medieval view of the Earth and the planets was the Earth was a motionless object suspended in the middle of the universe, and everything else in the universe, the sun, planets, stars, or any other astronomical objects, revolved around the Earth.
