Brief Explanations

The geocentric theory (from the Greek word "geo" meaning Earth) is the historical astronomical model that placed Earth at the center of the universe, with other celestial bodies like the sun, moon, planets, and stars orbiting around it. The heliocentric theory, in contrast, places the sun at the center. The moon orbits Earth, and Jupiter is a planet in our solar system, neither of which was considered the center in the geocentric model.
