    The document compares the Geocentric and Heliocentric models of the universe. The Geocentric model placed Earth at the center with planets and stars orbiting around it, while the Heliocentric model developed by Aristarchus placed the Sun at the center with Earth and other planets revolving around it. Both models were created by Greek astronomers and contained Earth, Sun, and other planets, but the Heliocentric model was more stable as it correctly identified the Sun rather than Earth as the center of our system.

    Geometric

    · earth is at center of revolving planets and stars

    · Earth rotates on its axisa and revovles around the sun

    · Earth centered model

    · Planet moved in small circles carried along in bigger circles

    · Stars orbital velocity sends it flying off into space and central palnet follows the stars and orbit
    the star.

    · Very old model: Early Greek

    · Its unable, the central planet can't hold the other planets orbit.

    Similarities

    · Both were created by a Greek astronomers

    · Both are ways to display the Universe

    · The models were both contain 3 main objects: Earth, Sun, and other planets

    · Planets orbit in some ways

    Heliocentric

    · Sun centered model

    · Aristarchus developed model

    · Not well received in ancient times

    · The sun is the center of the universe and Earth move around it along with other planets

    · Earth and the other planets revolve around the sun

    · All planets, moons, stars, orbit around the sun

    · A more stable system
