The Tychonic system, named after the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe, is a model of the cosmos that combines aspects of both the geocentric (Earth-centered) and heliocentric (Sun-centered) models of the universe. Developed in the late 16th century, it was proposed at a time when the heliocentric model of Copernicus was gaining attention but had not yet been universally accepted.
