Ptolemy's theory accounted mathematically for the movement of the planets, Sun and Moonand the stars.
However, Ptolemy thought the Earth is the center of the universe, which is wrong. Galileo helped prove that the Sun is the center of our solar system by the use of his homemade telescope. Ptolemy thought that the Sun, planets, and stars rested on crystal spheres that revolved around Earth. Ptolemy had toput in things called "epicycles" and other ideas, to make his system work.
Galileo and Copernicus were two of the scientists to disprove Ptolemy's geocentric theory of the universe. The Ptolemaic theory stated that the center was earth.
Shortly before Copernicus died he figured that the Earth was notthecenter of things, but the Sun was. This theory is still used today. He worked out this this theory from detailed observations of the orbit of Mars.
Earth was the center of the universe

Ptolemy thought the earth was the center of the solar system (Otherwise known as the Geocentric theory) and Copernicus's idea was that the sun was at the center of the solar system (Heliocentric theroy).

Yes, it would be! And No it wouldn't at the same time!
lets she...there was tryphaeana, berenice, arsinoe, and the two tiny ptolemys. . . .that makes five
The planets move on little circles that move on bigger circles.
he doesn't. They barely realize that they may like each other until one of them dies.
