	SparkNotes: Earth: History of Astronomical Thought about Earth
		In the third century BC, Eratosthenes found the radius of the Earth quite accurately by simultaneously measuring the different lengths of two shadows located in two separate places located along a straight north-south line, and using geometry to figure out the rest.
		Yet despite their general scientific acumen, the Greeks, along with Aristotle (384-322 BC), perhaps the most respected of classical physicists and astronomers, believed that the Earth was at the center of the universe.
		Such experimentation clearly showed that the natural motion of things on Earth was clearly vertical with respect to the ground: a rock fell to the ground, fire leapt into the air, bubbles moved upward through water.
