Geocentric Heliocentric Cyclic Model Big Bang Theory

Proposed by Copernicus, the sun is at the center of this model.

The most widely accepted scientific theory of how the Universe began.

This theory of formation says the Earth will stop expanding and contract back to a single point.

The sun, stars and moon move in a perfectly circular path at the same speed.
