Copemicus' theory was that earth is not the center of the universe, but that the sun is. He wrote a whole book on how the universe changed and about the earth, moon and planets travelling around the solar system. His books were banned by the Pope as this idea was different to what the Church (ignorantly) asserted. Finally another scientist proved that Copemicus' theory made more sense. The theory was finally acknowledged as being more true by the Church much later.
The Heliocentric picture of the solar system is a model because it was given as a theory by Copernicus to describe the solar system. In prior centuries people believed that the earth was the center of the solar system.
As proposed by the Heliocentric Theory, the Sun is the center of the Solar System.
The heliocentric theory was first published by Copernicus.
The hypothesis on how the solar system was formed is known as the solar nebula theory. This theory posits that the solar system formed from a massive, rotating cloud of gas and dust called the solar nebula. Over time, gravity caused the material in the nebula to clump together, eventually forming the sun and the planets.
The solar nebula theory is considered a theory rather than a hypothesis because it is a well-substantiated explanation supported by a substantial body of evidence from various fields, including astronomy, geology, and physics. It provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the formation and evolution of the solar system, incorporating observations of protoplanetary disks and the distribution of elements in the solar system. Unlike a hypothesis, which is a testable prediction or assumption, a theory is a robust explanation that has withstood extensive testing and scrutiny over time.
Not exactly, it is a theory about the origin of the Universe; which does include the Solar system...

That was Galileo.He advocated the heliocentric theory of the solar system,proposed by Copernicus.

Catastrophic theory of the solar system suggests that major disruptions or events in the past, such as collisions or close encounters with other celestial bodies, played a significant role in shaping the current structure of our solar system. This theory contrasts with the gradual, slow processes of traditional solar system formation theories.
The Nebula Theory is also known as the Solar Nebula Theory. It is a widely accepted model for the formation of our solar system.
The Heliocentric Theory states that the Earth and planets revolve around a stationary Sun at the center of the solar system. The Sun is the center of the Solar System.
