Do the observed phases of Venus support the heliocentric system?

The phases of Venus are well supported by the heliocentric system, but they are also supported very well by the previous geocentric system. All you need for Venus to have phases is that Venus should pass between Earth and Sun. That happens in both the heliocentric system and the geocentric system.


What is the difference between geocentric and heliocentric?

Geocentric understanding places the Earth at the center of the solar system or universe (depending on what is being discussed, and when) A Heliocentric understanding places the sun at the center of the solar system, or universe.


What is the difference between a geocentric model and heliocentric model of the solar system?

Heliocentric was thought to believe that the sun was at the center of the solar system and that the planets revolved around the Sun. Geocentric was thought to believe that the earth was the center of the solar system and that the planets revolved around the earth. We now know that our solar system is centered around the sun and is heliocentric.


Who challenged the geocentric model of the solar system?

One of the key figures who challenged the geocentric model of the solar system was Nicolaus Copernicus, who proposed a heliocentric model with the Sun at the center and the planets, including Earth, orbiting around it. This heliocentric model eventually gained acceptance and revolutionized our understanding of the solar system.


What is part of both the geocentric and heliocentric theories?

Both the geocentric and heliocentric theories agree that the planets follow orbital paths around a central point, either Earth (geocentric) or the Sun (heliocentric). Both theories also acknowledge the existence of the planets and their movements within the solar system.
