Is there proof that the earth is the center of the universe?

Answer 1

Nowhere and everywhere.

The Universe was created from a single point and has expanded ever since. There is no centre, nor is any one place at the centre of the Universe.

The best analogy is blowing up a balloon with the Universe being the rubber outer. As the balloon expands, marks on the balloon move away from each other. No one can be said to be at the centre.

It was commonly believed that Earth was at the centre of the Universe but this is not so.

Answer 2

Just theorized;

A SUPER-MASSIVE-MASSIVE-MASSIVE-MEGA-SUPER BLACK HOLE! That is resulted from the Big Bang, and will eventually draw all matter into it again (Very, Very Slowly).

ANSWER:

There is no center of the Universe. The Universe is constantly expanding in all directions meaning there is no center.

Answer 3

"The center of the universe" doesn't make sense. Imagine a sphere where the surface of the sphere can be compared to our universe. Where is the center of the skin? It is impossible to answer, as any point on the sphere is identical to any other. You might say that the center is inside the sphere, but remember, the universe is akin to the surface of the sphere only, not the whole sphere.

Answer 4

It was never necessary for anyone to tell anybody that the earth is the center of the universe.
Anybody with functioning eyes can plainly and clearly see, by stepping out of his cave at any time
during any clear day or night, that every single object in the sky revolves around the earth. It's an
obvious fact, apparent to anyone who gives it the least moment's thought ... "the biggest no-brainer
in the history of earth".

Except that it's wrong. That's the surprise that somebody had to work up the guts to tell people.

Answer 5

There is none. Or, the question is illogical; it's like asking "where, on the surface of the Earth, is the center of the world?" Anywhere you choose to measure from is the center.

Answer 6

It was Copernicus who put that theory forward after a lot of work, and Galileo used it as a model successfully, but neither of them had any proof that it was more than just a theory.

It was not generally believed until after Newton's theory of gravity was discovered and it was found that the Sun is very much more massive than the Earth so therefore it must stay at the centre while the planets being much lighter revolve round it.

Answer 7

There is proof that the Earth revolves because, for example, if it was daytime in Asia, it would be nighttime in the US because the US would not be facing the sun. /// look up at the sky at night from a dark place you can see the rotation in relation to the stars

Answer 8

Aristarchus of Samos, a Greek mathematician and astronomer, is the first person whose name has come down through the ages who suggested that the Earth moved around the Sun instead of the Sun moving around the Earth.

Answer 9

From any part of the Universe it looks as if you are at the center of the Universe.

Answer 10

Aristotle mistakenly believed that Earth was the center of the universe and according to him Earth is made up of four elements namely: air,water,earth and fire. But this belief was changed when Nicolas Copernicus introduced the heliocentric model.
