Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Heliocentrism (also known as the Heliocentric model) is the 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.
Detailed explanation-2: -The heliocentric theory argues that the sun is the central body of the solar system and perhaps of the universe. Everything else (planets and their satellites, asteroids, comets, etc.) revolves around it. The first evidence of the theory is found in the writings of ancient Greek philosopher-scientists.
