(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
(2 Corinthians 10:4-5) KJV
Tycho Brahe made meticulous observation of the cosmos. He was on the Earth so, naturally, he observed a Geocentrospheric system. The problem was that he didn’t know about binary systems because they hadn’t made Star Wars yet.
He hired Kepler, a mathematician, to make sense of his observations and find out why his model didn’t predict planetary motion accurately. He was afraid that Kepler would use his observations to prove heliocentricity. According to history, that’s what happened.
The problem is that we’re still on the Earth and the cosmos is still functioning normally. We’re still watching the cosmos rotate around the Earth every single day. Every. Single. Day. It’s empirical. Heliocentricity is a theoretical model of the Geocentrospheric reality. Heliocentric and Geocentrospheric are two frames of reference in the same system, but you’re on the Earth, you’re not on the sun.
If only Tycho had lived to see Star Wars. Here’s an even more elegant depiction of the motion of planetary bodies in our cosmos:

Kepler’s Laws
Ellipses have two foci. Like, say, the Earth (F1) and the Sun (F2).
Bible Reading: Matthew 15-17
As it turns out, Tycho Brahe’s geo-heliocentric system was the closest to the physical truth – and only lacked a few ‘pieces of the puzzle’ which I have unearthed and assembled in my book “The TYCHOS – Our Geoaxial Binary System”(2018). The revised and improved 2nd Edition of my book (2022) is now freely accessible at my new website. Enjoy! 🙂 https://book.tychos.space/
Tycho’s model was empirical, so it was the truth. The only problem was that he didn’t know that the Earth is f1, and the sun is f2 in the application of Kepler’s laws.
Dear Lawrence, please know that the “laws” edicted by Johannes Kepler are no longer valid – as he was ultimately exposed (in 1988) for having shamelessly fudged with Tycho Brahe’s all-important observational data of Mars – as described in Chapter 5 of my book: https://book.tychos.space/chapters/5-mars What Brahe didn’t (and couldn’t possibly) know in his time is that Mars is the Sun’s binary companion. However, his Tychonic model correctly had the orbits of the Sun and Mars intersecting (just like all the binary systems in our universe).
You think that Mars and the Sun are a binary system? Impossible. How did you calculate the value that you use for the mass of the Sun? If Kepler’s laws (which you claim are now invalid) were used to calculate the mass of the Sun, then, the value that you use, 1.9E30 Kg, is wrong.
Tycho Brahe modified the model of astronomy/solar system of Nilakantha Somayagi (1455-1555) of Kerala, India. Brahe STOPPED the daily rotation of the Earth. Heraclides of Pontus (387 B.C. – 310 B.C.) modified the model of Philolaus and peers after the death of Pythagoras. Aristarchus of Samos (310 B.C. – 230 B.C.) modified the model of Heraclides. BTW/FYI Hipparchus of Nicea 163 B.C. used a rotating Earth so he was NOT an astronomer in the Aristotelian tradition. He used an abridged model of Heraclides that lacked the annual circular movement of the Earth. The sun accelerates on the horizon from the solar solstice to the equinox and then decelerates to the next equinox twice a year. The unabridged model predicts this observation. The agency that is responsible predicts the retrograde of the planets also. The model of Aristotle was LOST in Europe until Scholastic Aristotelianism was implemented when the Arabic language version of Ptolemy’s book was translated into the Latin language around 1100 A.D.
That’s fantastic information, thanks!
Matty, consider Accelerometer Physics Gravity. I agree with Matty’s Razor. I agree with Geocentrosheric. The latter two ideas are shared by many but are worded differently. Uh-oh. Misspelled Geocentrospheric and l can’t go back to correct it. Alternate science theory has its own websites. You are not alone. Unique but not alone. Simon Shack is an example. A bad example but an example none the less. James Carter is a good example. In between are the thousands of authors on General Science Journal. Check out the survey in 2012 by the National Science Foundation of 2200 Americans. We are not alone in our healthy skepticism.
