I believe that was Aristotle. This would be a geocentric universe. Galileo however, knew the universe was heliocentric and was persecuted for it.
Earth's complete circuit around the sun is called an orbit.
yesss he did he thought the earth was in the middle and all the plantes including the sun reolve around the earth.
NO!!!! The Earth's satellite is the Moon. The Sun is the Earth's main star. It can be thought that the Earth is a satellite planet to the Sun.

Aristarchus of Samos was an ancient Greek astronomer who proposed that the Earth revolves around the sun. His heliocentric model of the universe was a significant departure from the prevalent geocentric view at the time. He also estimated the sizes and distances of the sun and the moon in relation to Earth.
he thought that the sun evolved around the earth

Aristarchus of Samos thought that the sun was at the center of the universe and some "educated" greek people thought that the earth was the center of the universe but they were dead wrong because modern science now has evidence that the sun is the center of the universe.
It means that the sun (helios in greek) is at the centre. This is what we know to be true, but for many years people thought that the earth may be at the centre of the solar system (a geocentric system), with the sun orbiting the earth.
The ancient Greeks believed that every day, Apollo, the god of the sun, would ride a chariot a across the sky, pulling the sun behind him.

There is no main character. Greek Mythology is the way that the Greek people explained things that they didn't know about. For instance when the sun rose and set they thought it was a chariot rising and going around the Earth. Of course now we know we are the ones going around the sun.
We call the closest point of approach to the Sun "perihelion". "Peri-" from the Greek for near, and "helion" from the Greek "Helios" or "Sun".At perihelion, the Earth is at a distance of 147,098,074 kilometers or 91,402,506 miles.
