1 Astronomers Foldable review 

2 Ptolemy 90AD to 168 AD Thought like ancient Greeks that Earth was the center of the Universe- geocentric model 

3 Copernicus      Further developed Aristarchus heliocentric model (sun centered) by making a model of how the planets move around the sun 

4 Said planets move in perfect circles
Brahe                          Said planets move in perfect circles

5 Used Brahe's observations to find planets orbit in ellipses
Kepler      Used Brahe's observations to find planets orbit in ellipses

6 Galilleo                1564 to 1642 Used observations (found four moons orbit Jupiter and Venus has similar phases to the moon) to prove heliocentric model 

7 Newton         1642 to 1727 Confirmed the heliocentric model, proved gravity and inertia work together to keep planets and their moons in motion
