Aristarchus was the first person to think so, some time around 400 BCE. Copernicus came up with the idea next, and his writings convinced Bruno and Galileo. Galileo wrote a book about the sun centered "solar" system. Bruno was burned to death for his heresy.
this is an incomplete question. what it should be is something similar to "who discovered planitary motion?" if this is what you're seeking, then the person is Johannes Kepler. he confirmed that copernicus's Heliocentric Theory was accurate. he also discovered that planets revolved in eliptical (oval-like) orbits instead of circular ones.
The original people to discover the Orion were probably the Babylonians or the Greeks because they were the first to name the constellations but it really never said who specifically because it was so long ago
Though discussions on the possibility of heliocentrism [See Link] date to antiquity, it was not until 1,800 years later that the astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus presented a fully predictive model of a heliocentric system, which was later elaborated and expanded by Johannes Kepler.
Nicholas Copernicus discovered that the Earth orbits the Sun
hope that is helpfull =]
Aristarchus of Samos in 270BC RIGHT Copernicus Wrong
It was first fully explained by Newtons theory of gravity and laws of motion, but the theory built on previous work by Kepler.
The sun is in the center of the solar system. The Earth orbits the sun, and the moon orbits the Earth.
we know that the star that earth orbits is the sun the sun is the biggest star ever
The moon does orbit the Sun. Locked in orbit around the Earth, as the Earth orbits the Sun, the moon orbits the Sun.
The Moon actually orbits the Earth, which it does in 28 days, but if you consider the Earth and the Moon as a double system, then the Moon orbits the Sun once a year, just as the Earth does. The Moon is much closer to the Earth than the Earth and the Moon are to the Sun.
No it does notNo we are not the only planet in the galaxy we have 8 other planets to. if the earth and the moon was that close to the sun we wouldn't be living.
copernicus
It is believed that Nicolaus Copernicus first proposed the heliocentric theory.
No. Earth is a planet. It orbits the sun, which is a star.
The Earth orbits around the Sun, while the moon orbits around the Earth.
The Sun as it's the only body in the Solar System that is undergoing nuclear fusion.
C.
Venus orbits the sun.
The Moon orbits the Earth, the Earth orbits the Sun
A satellite is an object which orbits a larger body. For example, the Moon orbits the Earth, and the Earth orbits the Sun. The Moon is a satellite of the Earth and the Earth is a Satellite of the Sun.
Earth. It orbits the sun and the moon orbits it
It doesn't.It doesn't.It doesn't.It doesn't.
The sun is in the center of the solar system. The Earth orbits the sun, and the moon orbits the Earth.
