Galileo proved the heliocentric model by studying the position of Venus. He believed the sun to be center and all other bodies revolved around it in circular orbits which was disproved by Kepler. Kepler developed laws of planetary motion. One of which states that planets revolve around Sun in elliptical orbits with Sun at one of its foci. Thus, the given statement is false.
