Who reinvented or rediscovered the heliocentric theory?

The original idea (at least, the earliest of which we're aware) that the Earth circled the Sun was proposed by Aristarchus of Samos, a Greek astronomer and mathematician. But the Aristotle's idea that the Sun circled the Earth was more "obviously apparent" and became accepted as fact. The reintroduction of the heliocentric theory by Copernicus, supported by more accurate celestial observations, came almost 1700 years later.


Is the planet Earth actually circled?
