The Earth - with some stuff around (or above) it.
Copernicus hypothesized (discovered) that the Sun is the center of the universe and that the Earth isn't. (Actually the Sun is not the center of the Universe but it its the center of our solar system).

The universe did not exist before the Big Bang. There was nothing there. It can be hard to grasp for young minds.

Yes
We know how big it is now, we know how old it is, and we know the rate of expansion. Its like rewinding a movie that you started in the middle. We just rewind the known universe as it is now. We dont know how big it was before the big bang but we know how big it was at the initial kaboom.

In general it was thought to be a sort of mini-solar system.

The expansion of the Universe should not be thought as if matter expands quickly in an existing space; it is space itself that is expanding. This is a confusing topic; read the Wikipedia article on "metric expansion of space" for a brief introduction.
