No, Newton's theory does not support the geocentric model of the universe. His laws of motion and universal gravitation provide a framework that better explains the heliocentric model, where the Earth and other planets orbit the Sun. Newton's work laid the foundation for understanding planetary motion in a way that aligns with the heliocentric view, which was solidified by observations from astronomers like Copernicus and Galileo.

What are the element of heliocentric?

Both Helio-centric and Geo centric theories have the same elements- The Sun,stars,planets,satellites,asteroids... But Helio-centric theory proposes that Helium (sun) is the center of the Universe, while the remaining elements revolve around it. Geo-centric theory proposes that Geos (Earth) is the center of the Universe, while the remaining elements revolve around it.

What theory did Galileo's overturn?

He showed that the geo-centric view of our solar system did not match observation, but that the helio-centric view did. More fundamentally, Galileo Galilei led the way to a view that observation should take precedence over philosophy when determining truth about our world.

Difference between geo- and helio-centric model?

What is model of the solar system has Earth at the center?

The geocentric. The two systems were the geocentric and heliocentric, the former with the earth at the solar system's center, and the latter with the sun. Because Copernicus championed the latter, it is often called the Copernican model.


What observation about the sun's motion did early astronomers use to supportnthe geo centric theory?

Early astronomers observed that the sun appeared to move across the sky in a consistent pattern, rising in the east and setting in the west. This observation was used to support the geocentric theory, which posited that the Earth was at the center of the universe and that all celestial bodies revolved around it.


In the geocentric system of the ancient greeks all objects in space revolved around this?

The world, planet earth. Geo (earth, world) + centric (centered around)


How current models of the solar system differ from either Aristotle or Copernicus model?

Aristotle had thought that the Earth was the Geo-centric or the center of the universe and everything circled or revolved around it. Copernicus thought that the Sun is the center of the universe. Copernicus' idea is called Helios-centric.
