One ancient Greek scientist, Aristarchus, had a theory about the layout of the universe that was quite different from the other Greek theories. According to Aristarchus's theory,
A) Earth is at the center and other objects move around Earth in simple circles. B) the sun is at the center and other objects, including Earth, move around the sun in simple circles.
