Copernicus
People viewed that the Earth was spinning around the Sun rather than the Sun spinning around the Earth and they questionned the Church.
the heliocentric theory is the theory that the sun is in the center of the universe. the geocentric theory is the theory that the earth is in the center of the universeGeocentric models had the earth as the center of the universe with the sun and all the planets orbiting it. Heliocentric models (the current accepted ones) have the sun as the center, with the earth and planets orbiting it.Geocentric was the idea developed by the Greek philosopher Aristotle of an earth-centered view of the solar system. With Christianity's influence, people had thought that God put Earth in the center of the universe. Heliocentric came later on by Italian astronomer Galileo that the sun was put at the center of the solar system while Earth and all the other planets orbit around it.
One of the discoveries that led to the modern view of the Solar System was that the "orbits" of the planets were ellipses.
heliocentric means that sun is the center of our eight planets.Copernicus, one of the fathers of Astronomy thought that everything revolves around the sun.

Geocentric: Earth is center of the solar system. Heliocentric: Sun is the centre of the solar system.
Rejected by his contemporaries and ignored for 18 centuries, Aristarchus of Samos proposed the first serious model of a heliocentric solar system. You may read about it in Archimedes' book, "The Sand Reckoner".

Ptolemy contributed to science and astronomy by developing the theory of the Earth. He was the first person to view the solar system as a heliocentric system instead of a geocentric system.
For me, it depends on what you mean by the heliocentric view. If it is that the Sun is at the centre and the planets revolve around it, then, no, the Creationist view and the Heliocentric view are not in conflict. It's only when you start looking into theories of how the Sun/planets and in fact the universe started that you can get conflict..
It means sun-centred, from "helios" meaning "sun" and "centre". It refers to the Copernican view of the solar system, with the sun at the centre.
There is no discussion of Solar Energy, per se, in any of Sir Isaac Newton's writings. He came up with the heliocentric view of the Solar System - the layout we know to be true and is taught today.Before he came up with with the heliocentric view, the popular theory at the time was that the sun orbited the earth.Check out his brief biography on wikipedia.
The geocentric universe, so named because it was believed that everything revolved around the Earth. The view was eventually displaced by the heliocentric solar system, where the Earth and other planets revolve around the sun.
