Answer: This is due to the apparent movement of the celestial bodies, seen from an observer centered on the Earth. If we did not have knowledge of the advances of science and the latest discoveries, we would think that the Earth is the center of the universe.

Explanation: For example, for an observer on Earth as a reference system, the Sun moves every day from east to west, as do the planets and all the stars that we observe at night, which leads the observer to believe that those in motion are these bodies outside in the sky while the earth is still and fixed in the universe.
