What belief of other astronomers did Edwin Hubble and discovery confirm?
Edwin Hubble's discoveries confirmed the belief held by some astronomers that the universe is expanding. His observations of distant galaxies revealed that they were moving away from Earth, with those farther away receding faster, which led to the formulation of Hubble's Law. This finding supported the idea that the universe was not static but dynamic, contradicting the prevailing notion at the time that the universe was unchanging. Hubble’s work laid the groundwork for the Big Bang theory, fundamentally altering our understanding of the cosmos.

Until the 1500s the belief among scientist was that the earth was the center of the universe this is known of what theory?
This belief was known as the geocentric theory, which proposed that the Earth was the stationary center of the universe, with all celestial bodies revolving around it. This theory dominated scientific thought until the development of the heliocentric model by astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo in the 16th century.
How did astronomers change from the belief in the geocentric model to the heliocentric model?
It happened with the accumulation of discoveries that showed that the heliocentric model was superior, and the final discovery by Newton of the law of gravity and the laws of motion, which he used to show that the planets must move in elliptical orbits under the Sun's gravity, confirmed what Kepler had discovered from Tycho's observations, that the planets move in elliptical orbits. The most convincing single discovery was the phases of Venus. In the Ptolemaic geocentric system Venus stays between us and the Sun, and it can only have a crescent phase. But Galileo's discovery of Venus's gibbous phase was a clear sign of a fault with the Ptolemaic system. However Tycho's geocentric system allowed Venus to show the full range of phases, so Galileo's discovery was not conclusive.
Copernican system who supported this belief and who did not?
The Copernican system, which proposed that the Earth revolved around the Sun, was supported by astronomers like Nicolaus Copernicus, Johannes Kepler, and Galileo Galilei. However, it faced opposition from religious authorities, such as the Catholic Church, who adhered to the geocentric model of the universe.
