It is currently unknown how many Earth-like planets exist in the universe. Scientists have discovered thousands of exoplanets, some of which may have conditions favorable for life, but the exact number of Earth-like planets is still uncertain due to the vastness of the universe.
Earth, Sun, Andromeda galaxy and then the universe. increasing size------------------------->
The geocentric modelof the universe stated that the earth was at the centre of the universe.
No, redshift refers to the phenomenon where the light from celestial objects appears to be shifting towards longer wavelengths, indicating that the object is moving away from the observer, including Earth. This is a key piece of evidence for the expansion of the universe and is commonly observed as a feature of distant galaxies.
A rocket is very helpful in the study of Universe. Rockets are designed in such a way that they can travel long distances and penetrate through the Earth's atmosphere. These rockets are also designed to carry people, satellites, various equipments etc. If a rocket is being sent into space, the people in it i.e. the astronauts, find out essential information about the Universe. The satellites in it may help us in various ways. A rocket's design, space etc. enables us to know more about the Universe. Nowadays, better rockets are made for deeper study.
The Songs of Distant Earth was created in 1958.
Every other mass in the universe exerts a gravitational force on the Earth. Of all those other masses, there are two which are big enough or close enough to have a substantial influence. These are the Sun (big but distant) and the Moon (close, but small). Nothing else in the universe has more an a trace effect on the Earth, not even mighty Jupiter, which is both smaller than the Sun AND several times more distant.

In the observable universe there are about 80 to 100 billion galaxies with varying numbers of stars in each. A rough mean average for the number of stars per galaxy is 400 billion. It is thought that there are from 30 to 70 billion trillion (i.e. 30 to 70 sextillion) stars in the observable universe. Whilst the estimates differ somewhat, the number of stars seems to be in the sextillions, which is a 1 followed by 21 zeros. There are many reasons why our estimates vary as much as they do. An important point to consider is that when we observe distant objects such as stars, we don't see them as they are now, but as they were in the past. The reason we see into the past as we look out into the universe is because the light we see takes a finite amount of time to reach us. As such, some of the stars we see, particularly those in very distant regions of space (relative to earth), may no longer be counted as stars. Conversely, new stars in distant regions may have already formed but we wouldn't see them until light from those stars reaches us here on earth.
The most distant stars we can see (at least in principle) now are almost as old as the Universe; so, about 13 billion years.

There are planets outside our solar system known as exoplanets that might have Earth-like conditions, but none have been found that are identical to Earth. The search for Earth-like exoplanets continues using telescopes and technologies to explore the vast universe.

The universe then the sun then the earth:)
It would mean that the universe was radially static. That is, no galaxy was moving towards or away from the earth. This could happen if everything in the whole universe were moving in the same direction at the same [linear or rotational] velocity.
Astronomers have spotted the most distant object yet confirmed in the universe - a self-destructing star that exploded 13.1 billion light years from Earth. It detonated just 630 million years after the big bang, around the end of the cosmic "dark ages", when the first stars and galaxies were lighting up space.
