Heliocentrism (also known as the heliocentric model) is a astronomical model in which the Earth and planets revolve around the Sun at the center of the universe. Historically, heliocentrism was opposed to geocentrism, which placed the Earth at the center.

The notion that the Earth revolves around the Sun had been proposed as early as the third century BC by Aristarchus of Samos, who had been influenced by a concept presented by Philolaus of Croton (c. 470 – 385 BC).

In the 5th century BC the Greek Philosophers Philolaus and Hicetas had the thought on different occasions that the Earth was spherical and revolving around a "mystical" central fire, and that this fire regulated the universe. In medieval Europe, however, Aristarchus' heliocentrism attracted little attention—possibly because of the loss of scientific works of the Hellenistic period.

It was not until the sixteenth century that a mathematical model of a heliocentric system was presented by the Renaissance mathematician, astronomer, and Catholic cleric, Nicolaus Copernicus (A Freemason), leading to the Copernican Revolution. In the following century, Johannes Kepler (A Freemason) introduced elliptical orbits, and Galileo Galilei (A Freemason) presented supporting observations made using a telescope.

Here's a list of common claims that make up the heliocentric model.

Terminology

Circumference

The circumference is the perimeter, or distance around the circle. Imagine wrapping a string all the way around a circle. Now imagine removing the string and pulling it out into a straight line. If you were to measure this string, that length is the circumference of your circle.

Diameter

The diameter is the length, or distance, across the circle at its widest point, passing through the center.

Radius

In classical geometry, a radius of a circle or sphere is any of the line segments from its center to its perimeter. The name comes from the Latin radius, meaning ray but also the spoke of a chariot wheel.
