Why did people believe that a geocentric system was correct?
The geocentric system is very plausible to people who have not looked deeply into the subject of astronomy, because at first glance, that's how things appear. We stand on a world that does not feel like it is moving. Our senses tell us that it is motionless (not counting earthquakes). It is somewhat difficult to imagine that this vast, seemingly motionless surface that we are standing on is actually moving through space. And when we look at the sky, we see various astronomical objects which rise and set, just as if they were circling the motionless Earth.
