Why does the Moon cycle from New Moon to Full Moon?
The Phases of the Moon are caused by the amount of lighted Moon surface that is visible from Earth. That changes in standard cycles of 29.5 days as the Moon circles the Earth and the Earth circles the Sun. Half of the Moon is always lit by the Sun, the same as all the planets and satellites. At different times of the month, different amounts of that lighted surface are visible from Earth. If the Moon is between the Sun and Earth, we see only the dark side. If the Moon has circled to the other side of the Earth, away from the sun, we see the lit side. For instance, at the time of the Crescent Moon, the whole Moon is there, but we are seeing (or not seeing) mostly the unlit side of the Moon. At that time, because of the positions of the Earth, Sun and Moon, only the edge of the lit part is visible from Earth.

Why is the sun at the center of your solar system?
In the beginning, when the sun was born, a bunch of asteroids and debre circled it. And most of it clashed together and was destroyed. Earth is part of the cluster of rocks that circled it that survived. And we are in orbit of the sun, circling it. And we turn as we circle the sun. On turn of the earth is one day, and one complete orbit of the sun is one year.

Who reinvented or rediscovered the heliocentric theory?
The original idea (at least, the earliest of which we're aware) that the Earth circled the Sun was proposed by Aristarchus of Samos, a Greek astronomer and mathematician. But the Aristotle's idea that the Sun circled the Earth was more "obviously apparent" and became accepted as fact. The reintroduction of the heliocentric theory by Copernicus, supported by more accurate celestial observations, came almost 1700 years later.
