The first man to suggest that the Earth revolved around the Sun was the ancient Greek philosopher Aristarchus of Samos in the 3rd century BC. He proposed this heliocentric model, but it was not widely accepted during his time.
Aristrachus of SamosThe first man to theorize that the Earth revolved around the sun is believed to be Nicolas Copernicus. In the 1500s he speculated that rather than the sun circling the Earth, the Earth may actually orbit the sun.
The man who proposed the heliocentric model of the universe, with the Earth revolving around the Sun, was Nicolaus Copernicus, a Polish mathematician and astronomer. His work laid the foundation for modern astronomy.
The earth has seasons mainly because of the tilt to the earth towards or away from the sun. Contrary to popular belief, the distance from the sun caused by Earth's elliptical orbit only makes a minuscule difference in climate.
It is the theory in which the earth is the center of the universe and that all the planets revolve around it including the sun. this theory was developed by Aristotle.Geocentric theory basically stated that the Earth was at the center of the universe, and that the sun, moon, planets, and other heavenly bodies revolved around it. This theory was believed extensively during the middle ages.
The definition of a satellite be it man made or natural is, a body that orbits the parent. The earth is a satellite of the sun, the moon is a satellite of the earth ans so are all the man made ones we put in space.

The first man to theorize that the Earth revolved around the sun was the Greek philosopher and mathematician, Aristarchus of Samos, in the 3rd century BCE. His heliocentric model of the solar system was largely ignored in favor of the geocentric model proposed by Ptolemy, until it was later revived by Copernicus in the 16th century.

The first man to theorize that the Earth was a sphere was the ancient Greek philosopher Pythagoras in the 6th century BC. He believed that the Earth was round because of its symmetry and harmony with other celestial bodies.
The Geocentric model of the solar system proposed that the Earth was at the centre of the system (and universe), while the sun and planets revolved around the Earth. We now know this not to be true and that the sun is at the centre of the solar system (Heliocentric). This was suggested as early as the 3rd century BC by Aristarchus of Samo, but he received no support from other astronomers at the time. Nicolaus Copernicus later in the 16th Century proposed the helicentric model that we see true today.
