Who was the first scientist to dispute ptolemys model of a geocentric or earth ventures universe?
The first scientist to dispute Ptolemy's geocentric model was Nicolaus Copernicus. In the early 16th century, Copernicus proposed a heliocentric model, placing the Sun at the center of the universe and suggesting that the Earth and other planets revolve around it. His work, particularly the publication of "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium" in 1543, laid the groundwork for the Scientific Revolution and fundamentally changed our understanding of the cosmos.

Who was the first scientist to dispute ptolemy model of geocentric of earth center universe?
The first astronomer to dispute the model seriously was Nicholas Copernicus in the 1500s. His model used circles and epicycles, like the old Ptolemaic model, but had the Sun at the centre, which led to its being named the heliocentric model. Sixty years after his death in 1543, the Copernicus model was taken up by Galielo in his dispute with the Catholic church. In the latter half of the 1600s further discoveries led to wider acceptance of the heliocentric concept. However the rest of the Copernicus model was discarded and replaced by Kepler's model which had each planet in an elliptical orbit, and this was taken up and given scientific credibility by the discoveries of Newton and others.

What scientist thought earth was at the center of the universe?
The Greek astronomer Claudius Ptolemy believed that Earth was at the center of the universe in his geocentric model, which was widely accepted in the ancient world. This view held sway until the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus in the 16th century challenged it.
What was the first scientist to dispute Ptolemy's model of a genetic or earth centered?
Copernicus devised an alternative model to explain the planets' movements among the stars. It was similar to Ptolemy's model in that it was composed of circles and epicycles, but it differed in placing the Sun at the centre instead of the Earth. So Ptolemy's model was geocentric while Copernicus's was heliocentric. Copernicus had no way of testing the validity of his model except that it was geometrically simpler, especially for the inner planets Mercury, Venus and Mars which needed much smaller epicycles in Copernicus's model. We now know that the large epicyces in the Ptolemaic model were necessary to compensate for the Earth's movement round the Sun. Galieo's discoveries with the telescope raised more serious doubts about Ptolemy's model when he found that Venus showed phases that could not be explained by the Ptolemaic model. The gibbous phase is not explained by Ptolemy's model because it does not allow Venus to go behind the Sun as seen from Earth. Tycho produced a model that was geocentric but also explained the phases of Venus. Finally all three models were rejected in favour of Kepler's model, which has the Sun at the centre and the planets in elliptical orbits. This is the model used today, with very minor modifications due to the General Theory of Relativity.
