Geocentrism = everything revolves around the Earth. The earth is the center of the solar system = Wrong
Helocentrism = the sun is the center of the solar system, everything revolves around it.
Literally every modern concept of astronomy would be wildly different if the former were true. All math, plant spacing and star alignments/distances would be different. Gravity would be different. We actually go around the sun because of its immense mass and gravity. If the sun floated around us, the sun would have devoured the system or shot us out into space billions of years ago.
