Question

2. What is the geocentric model? (2 points)

Answer 1

The geocentric model is a model or theory that suggests that the Earth is at the center of the universe, with all celestial bodies, such as the sun, moon, and planets, orbiting around it. This model was widely believed during ancient times and prevailed until the heliocentric model, which placed the sun at the center, was proposed by Nicolaus Copernicus in the 16th century.
