The Astronomy Center has provided educational resources to introductory astronomy educators since 2003. Over the past 20 years, the rapid pace of discovery has rendered some of our linked resources obsolete. Thus, the Astronomy Center will be decommissioned on March 1, 2022. Our highest quality resources will be retained on ComPADRE.org.
This Astronomy Corner essay discusses the evolution from a geocentric model to a heliocentric model of the cosmos. The author tells the history of this discovery beginning with the Greeks and ends with Kepler's laws of planetary motion. The Astronomy Corner is at http://astro.isi.edu
