Nicolaus Copernicus challenged the geocentric model of the universe proposed by Aristotle and Ptolemy by introducing the heliocentric model, which posited that the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun. His work, "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium," published in 1543, laid the groundwork for modern astronomy. Later, Galileo Galilei and Johannes Kepler provided further evidence supporting the heliocentric theory, leading to a significant shift in scientific understanding of the cosmos.
Aristotle contributed the Heliocentric theory which was the earth was in the center of the earth. Ptolemy built on this later on with the moon and stars having their own orbits
He was proved not sufficiently accurate in extreme circumstances.
If you're talking about the equation where 'e' is energy, 'm' is mass, and 'c' is the speed of light, then that one has never been proved wrong. In fact, it has predicted the correct results thousands of times.

Aristotle Athiras is 5' 10".
because they were proved wrong by other scientists.
No, that was done by Aristotle. Diogenes also proved it wrong simply by out-racing a tortoise. A final, formalized refutation was done by mathematicians in the late 1800s.
Aristotle was a Greek philosopher who made significant contributions to various fields, including ethics, logic, and metaphysics. Ptolemy, on the other hand, was an astronomer and mathematician who developed the geocentric model of the universe. While Aristotle's work influenced a wide range of disciplines, Ptolemy's contributions were mostly focused on astronomy.

aristotle and nicolaus copernicus
Aristotle came first, followed by Ptolemy, then Copernicus and Galileo. Other important players in the story after them were Tycho Brahe, Johannes Kepler and Isaac Newton.
Isaac Newton proved that when an apple falls from a tree this is not due to gravity but the phazons that our reflecting off of the outer shell of the apple. This is of course in contrary to Aristotles works.
The idea that the Earth was the center of the universe was adopted because of the writings of Ptolemy and Aristotle. This was a common belief until the 1700s.
It didn't originate by itself, I can tell you that. In other words, it didn't create itself by "spontaneous generation" (Aristotle has been proved wrong). People had to make it.
Aristotle or perhaps Ptolemy?
Aristotle and Ptolemy - pick one.
Aristotle's dynamic motion theory was proven wrong by a man named Galileo. He tested Aristotle's theory by dropping a heavy object and a lighter object at the same time. The experiment proved Aristotle wrong because the result was that the two objects were falling at the same rate (speed).
