No one can "prove" while standing in their back yard that the Earth goes around the Sun. From all appearances, the sun _is_ circling the Earth. Yet we accept a Sun-centered solar system as fact because of the work done by others. And that work has to be independently corroborated; repeatable in the absence of any connection to the first work. PS: Passages in the Bible used to claim that the Earth was the center of the universe, and every celestial body was encased in a crystal glass bulb. That is why Galileo's observance of moons orbiting around Jupiter was so "ghastly". What about the "crystal"???!!! (source: Stephen J Gould)
