astronomy

The field of astronomy has evolved significantly from ancient times, beginning with the transition from geocentric to heliocentric models of the universe. Early astronomers like Galileo and Copernicus played pivotal roles in this shift, moving from the Earth-centered model proposed by Aristotle and refined by Ptolemy to a Sun-centered system.
