The heliocentrism theory is the theory tht the sun is in the middle of all the planets. The geocentrism theory is that the earth is in the middle of all the planets. Nicholas Copernicus is the first one who came up with the idea that the sun was the center of all the planets. He knew that the earth moved and wasnt fitted to be in the center. To him the mathematics didnt make sense and with the earth moving it really didnt make sense so he made the Ptolemaic system. This system showed the sun in the middle and the earth circling around it.
The geocentrism theory was brought in mind by aristotle. Many people in the time thoght this theory made the most sense. That earth was the middle beacuse if you looked up in the sky it looked like everything moved but earth. This theory was extremely strong in the religious world. They also thought this beacuse the earth was solid.
In the 21st century we all knoe now that the correct theory is the heliocentrism theory.If it was back then i probably would have also believed in the geocentrism theory becuse it was the most famous one which can just be prvine by looking up.
