I think you mean 'proved false'. To falsify means to deliberately deceive, as in 'falsifying a passport'. The theory is associated with Ptolemy.

Whose theory of the universe was held as law for thousands of years even though the theory was falsified?

The Ptolemaic theory of the planets was believed to be right for 1400 years until Copernicus suggested that the Sun might be at the centre and not the Earth. Although Copernicus's theory was not correct, is was soon replaced by Kepler's theory which has been supported by further scientific discoveries throughout the 400 years since it was published.


Is evolutions falsificationable?

Falsifiable. Yes. As a famous population biologist once said, " show me fossil bunnies in the Pre-Cambrian and you will have falsified evolution. " All scientific facts are falsifiable as well as all scientific theories. It once was a " fact " that the world was flat and it once was a theory that the universe was in steady state. Both falsified. Of course, no one has falsified evolution the fact, or the theory of evolution by natural selection.

What is the Open theory of the universe?

It is the idea that the universe will continue to expand forever. By contrast, the closed theory states that gravity will eventually cause the universe to shrink. (I think) In addition to the above. Essentially it is the theory that the universe has no boundary and is not closed in on itself in any way. The shape of the universe in this case must be either "flat" or "curved" to some extent, but not curved enough to form a cylinder, sphere, ellipsoid or torus.


Whos theory of the universe was held as law for thousands of years even though he was wrong?

Aristotle's theory of the universe, which believed in a geocentric model with Earth as the center of the universe, was held as law for thousands of years despite being incorrect. His ideas were widely accepted and influential in shaping Western thought until the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus and later supported by Galileo challenged this view.


Whose theory of the universe was law for thousands of years even though it was wrong?

could you re-phrase that? do you mean who came up with the initial theory of the universe and it's evolution? if so, to claim it was/is wrong is very relative. no matter how you look at it the universe is almost all theoretical Physics.
