According to Ptolemy where was the sun relation to earth and the other plants?

According to Ptolemy's geocentric model, the Earth was at the center of the universe, and all celestial bodies, including the sun and the planets, revolved around it in circular orbits. The sun was positioned on a deferent circle that revolved around the Earth, following the movements of the planets. This model placed Earth as the focal point of the cosmos, with the sun serving as one of the key bodies orbiting around it.


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.
