What old belief about the universe did the new discoveries destroy?
they went against the long accepted geocentric theory.
Was brane's theory geocentric or heliocentric?
Brane theory is not a cosmological model but a theoretical framework in theoretical physics that suggests the existence of additional dimensions beyond the known four dimensions (three of space and one of time). It is not related to the geocentric or heliocentric nature of the solar system.
Was Aristotle the person who created the geocentric theory?
Aristotle was the first to develop a geocentric theory. But it is generally accepted that the Greek astronomer Ptolemy provided the most elaborated model of the geocentric view of the universe in which the Earth was the center. This idea lasted for centuries until the time of Copernicus.
Who first questioned the idea of the geocentric theory?
The Greek philosopher Aristarchus of Samos is credited with first questioning the geocentric theory in the 3rd century BC. He proposed a heliocentric model in which the Earth and other planets revolve around the Sun.
Why did the wanderers create problems with the geocentric theory?
The geocentric theory, which placed Earth at the center of the universe, faced challenges from the wanderers (planets) because their movements did not align with the geocentric model. Observations of the planets' irregular paths in the sky led to the eventual development of the heliocentric model, where the Sun, not Earth, is at the center of the solar system.
Why did Aristotle's geocentric theory fail to match expected predictions?
A few celestial objects appear to have retrograde motion.
Why did Aristotle's geocentric theory fail to match the expected predictions?
Aristotle's geocentric theory failed to match the expected predictions because it incorrectly placed Earth at the center of the universe, leading to inaccuracies in predicting the motions of celestial bodies. With the advancement of observational astronomy and the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus and later confirmed by Kepler, it became evident that Earth revolves around the Sun, not vice versa.
A theory which repeatedly fails to confirm the expected predictions is?
is probably an incorrect theory
Who formulate the geocentric theory?
ptolemy formulated the geocentric theory...
Who discover geocentric theory?
geocentric theory invented by phtolemy
Who disproved geocentric theory?
Claudius Ptolemy disproved geocentric theory.
When ptolemy developed geocentric theory?
geocentric
How variables are expected to be related to one another often according to predictions from a theory?
Variables are expected to be related to one another based on the assumptions and logical reasoning within a theory. The theory specifies the nature and direction of relationships between variables, guiding the researcher's predictions. These relationships can be tested through empirical research to evaluate the theory's validity.
Why is it called the geocentric theory?
Geo = about the Earth Centric = in the middle Geocentric = The-Earth-In-The-Middle theory
Geocentric theory originated with the man named?

The heliocentric theory challenged the?

the heliocentric theory challenged the?
