Which scientist is credited with the revolution of the Earth around the sun?

Answer 1

Copernicus

Answer 2

that's an social gathering of a wierd phenomenon on Wacko! solutions, wherein a horde of human beings giving thoroughly incorrect replies looks unexpectedly for one question in elementary words, and then disappear into our on-line world again. many times observed by technique of thumbs-downs for each of the more desirable suitable solutions. Then the right solutions come to deliver equilibrium again. The rotation of the Earth is what provides us day and nighttime, because the Earth spins round its personal axis. no longer something to do with seasons. The revolution around the daylight provides us the seasons. because the Earth is tilted 23.5 ranges when it comes to the daylight, for area of the 365 days, one 1/2 of the Earth is tilted more desirable in the direction of the daylight than the different 1/2. because of this, the area of the Earth in the direction of the daylight receives more desirable direct sunlight, for longer days, and for this reason heats up more desirable. that's what we call summer time the different 1/2 is in iciness. Then the alternative occurs 1/2 a revolution (or 1/2 a 365 days) later. The orbit is somewhat elliptical, yet this has little result. The northern summer time takes position even as the Earth occurs to be further faraway from the daylight.

Answer 3

The first known drawing of a heliocentric solar system came from Old Kingdom Egypt, and is at least 5,000 years old. Other astronomers in ancient Persia, Sumer, Greece, and China also deduced the general organization of the solar system by careful observation of the motion of the earth and other planets.

This knowledge was suppressed in Hebraic/Hellenic cultures because it seemed to make the earth and humankind less important, which contradicted the religious beliefs of the times.

The breakthrough in the religio-political debate came in the 15th century with Galileo Galilei, Copernicus, and others. The observations and their theoretical meanings continue to be refined to the present day.

There's a rich buffoon that runs a "museum" near the Cleveland airport that still believes the sun goes around the earth. People can convince themselves of anything if they are scared enough.

Answer 4

There are many people who believed that in a heliocentric (planets orbit the sun) solar system before Copernicus, but Copernicus was the first to develop a complicated mathematical model based on this theory.

In reality his model was wrong. The simple model of the Sun at the center and planets with nice circular orbits around the Sun was really Gallo's misinterpretation of Copernicus's model. What Copernicus's actually proposed was a complected system of planets orbiting points upon additional orbits.

Answer 5

Who ever it is that says the earth revolves around the Sun was not completedly correct .The answer to that is found in relativity. Where all motion is said to be relative to a zero point of measurement=the frame of reference.
Therefore the earth's revolution is relative to a barry center which is the zero point reference frame.It was Copernicus which counteracted the idea that the sun revolved around the earth ,saying that its the earth only that revolves not the Sun..However He did not know the fine points of the theory of relativity at that time.

Answer 6

In modern times, Copernicus. But Aristarchus (an ancient Greek guy) also said that Earth orbits the Sun.

Answer 7

Actually no person can take credit for the Earth revolving around the sun -- it was that way when we got here.

Answer 8

Kepler didn't really 'prove' the Earth orbits the sun - he produced empirical laws which fitted the observations he got from Tycho Brahe. There was no explanation for them until Newton produced his law of Universal Gravitation.

Answer 9

Copernicus of course.
In 1539 his pupil Rheticus published a book which included part of the "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium", still unpublished by Copernicus himself. It was then published just after Copernicus death in 1543.

Answer 10

Johannes Kepler was the first scientist to mathematically prove it, in 1608.

Edit: Copernicus and Galileo both believed this to be the case but never actually proved it.
