Ptolemy's theory of geocentrism, which placed Earth at the center of the universe, was helpful at the time as it provided a simple model to predict planetary positions. It helped early astronomers make sense of the movements of planets in the sky. However, it was eventually replaced by the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus.
