Answer:

TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

Heliocentrism is the theory about the cosmological system, according to which the Earth and the other planets revolve around the Sun. Newton's contribution was central to the heliocentric theory, since Newton formulated the laws of motion - laws of Newton. Through three laws of motion and the universal law of gravity, Newton was able to explain all the movements of the known planets, and many phenomena on Earth.
