Ptolemy chose the earth centric model.
Today astronomers do the same. The Sun is too hot to make the
measurements from it.
Oh dear - no. Astronomers to-day know that the earth orbits around the
sun.
It is incorrect to say that "the sun is too hot to make the measurements".
Scientists make plenty of observations of the sun (sunspots, CME and so
on).
All measurements were, are, and will be done from the Earth.
"Ptolemy chose the earth centric model" means that all measurements must be
done from the Earth.
All astronomers before Ptolemy (and he) known that the planets orbit the
Sun.

I love how your replies often have nothing to do with the subject, like now.
You really are a moron.
