Question

Select all that apply. Which of the following astronomers supported the Earth-centered system?
Tycho Brahe
Kepler
Copernicus
Ptolemy

Answer 1

Among the options, the two astronomers who supported the Earth-centered system were Tycho Brahe and Ptolemy.

Both astronomers developed in fact a system where the Sun was located at the center, while the Earth and the other planets were orbiting around the Sun.

Answer 2

Answer:

Ptolemy and partially Tycho Brahe

Explanation:

Both Ptolemy and Tycho Brahe believed that the earth was the center of the orbit of the sun, the first also of all the other planets and stars, the later believed the sun was in exchange the center of all the other celestial bodies, then Brahe's posture was an intermediary between that of Ptolemy and the heliocentrism(Sun as center of the solar system, where the planets orbit around it) of Copernicus, that proved to be the right observation later with galileo galilei.
