It is worth pointing out that no one today believes that the Sun is the center of the Universe. If all he had to do was recant that view, modern science would force him to recant today if the Church had not forced him to do so almost 400 years ago.
The Sun is the center of the Solar System by any reasonable physics standard. The Universe has no center as far as physics is concerned. As far as college football is concerned, on the other hand, the center of the Universe is Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
