Which model of the solar system has Earth at the center of the revolving planets and stars? An example model is shown
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The geocentric model of the solar system has Earth at the center.

Explanation:

Throughout history, there have been multiple different models that humans thought of or created through observation. The two most famous ones from the past are the geocentric and heliocentric, with the geocentric coming earlier and for a very long time being the model that was accepted by the majority.

The geocentric model is a model that puts Earth in the center of the universe. Earth is presented as the most important and largest object in the universe. All of the space bodies, the Sun, stars, Moon, planets, were thought to revolve around Earth. As it turned out, this model was full of mistakes. Everything about it was wrong, with the only correct thing being that the Moon is actually revolving around Earth.
