What does the geocentric model look like?

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.


Why is geocentrism not true?

A model is never wrong; it is merely more or less useful. In celestial navigation we continue to use the geocentric model of the Sun, Moon, stars and planets, because it makes the mathematical calculations much easier. (I spent 3 years teaching celestial navigation for the U.S. Air Force's Interservice Navigator Training School at Mather AFB, Sacramento, CA.) For anything beyond low-earth-orbit, the geocentric model does not represent reality in any meaningful way, and is not useful.

The Geocentric theory puts the Earth in the middle, with the Sun and all planets orbiting around the Earth. By now, we're pretty darn sure that's not how it is. The Sun is in the middle, with the planets orbiting around the Sun.
