In simple terms it is the shape of the universe. Many theories have been put forward for the shape of the universe, but it is generally thought of as being flat, or very slightly curved, but not so curved that it would fold back on itself to form a sphere, cylinder or torus (doughnut shape). This concept of being "flat" requires some unusual thinking because the universe is clearly three dimensional (with a fourth dimension of time) and not a flat two dimensional surface.

The belief of early astronomers that the Earth was the center of the universe is called?
This is called the Geocentric model, from the latin prefix "Geo-" for earth or ground. This was dropped by the scientific community at the beginning of the renaissance for the Heliocentric model, which states that the sun is the center of the universe. However, even this has been abandoned. The general consensus now is that the universe has no definite center or, if it does, we can never find it due to the dimensional 'curvature' it has.
Which best describes how equations are used in science?

What is the general theory relativity?
The general theory of relativity was published by Albert Einstein in 1916. It describes gravitation as a geometric property of space and time. It implies the existance of black holes as the death state of massive stars. It predicts the existence of gravitational waves and is the basis of current models of a consistently expanding universe.

What did the Copernicus universe suggest?
Copernicus suggested a heliocentric model of the universe. Meaning, the earth was the centre of the universe and other planets had to orbit around the earth. This model of the universe was against Ptolemy's model of a geocentric model; a stationary Earth at the centre of the universe.
