  • i love the reason why the greeks thought the Earth had to be at the centre of the solar system.

    If it was any where else, and moving at all, then where was the wind? Thus it can only be at the centre completly stationary.

  • @merlady91 mm, makes sense.

  • @DonTheTurtleDude He looked at the numbers, and this was the only explanation. Before him, people basically thought the dots in the sky were gods. Trust me, I'm reading the Almagest in depth.

  • wow. kida sad for him, thinking that the entire universe revolves around us. stoopid!

  • Complete fail. like two objects are in orbit around nothing.
