Word	Native language	Definition	Picture
Revolution	Революция	Revolving the Earth around the Sun one time in 365 day
Geocentric model	Геоцентрической модели	Thought that the Earth in the middle of the Universe
Heliocentric model	Гелиоцентрической модели	Thought that the Sun in the middle of the Universe
Astronomy	Астрономия	Study of stars, planets, and other objects in space
Ptolemy	Птолемей	The man who believed in geocentric model
Copernicus	Коперника	The man who formulated heliocentric model
Orbit	Орбита	The movement of an object in space around another object

Ptolemy ancient Greek astronomer, who believed in Geocentric model. But Polish mathematician and astronomer Copernicus didn't believed in geocentric model. He believed to Heliocentric model.
In 16th century German physician Galileo invented the telescope and explored the astronomy. He saw that all the planets revolves around the Sun, through the telescope. He saw that the sun is not moving. Therefore Galileo and Copernicus' theory (Heliocentric theory) is correct and I believe in it because Galileo prove that with his telescope.

Critical thinking question

How is earth affected by movement?
Movement (revolution) of the Earth creates Earth seasons. based on Earth's tilt there's different season in the southern and northern hemisphere but in equator line there's always summer

Reflection
What did you enjoy most about this project and why?
I enjoyed by watching the video
What was most challenging for you during this project and why?
The most challenging part was drawing the pictures
What new skills did you learn from doing this project
I learned all the three astronomers' (Copernicus, Ptolemy, Galileo) opinions, before I was confuse about which one of them thinks what.
Is there anything that you could have done to improve any of your work? Explain
I would draw the pictures more clearly and add more information
