Glossary term: 과학적 모델
Description: 과학적 모델은 물리적이거나, 수학적이거나, 개념적이거나, 또는 다른 것을 비유해서 만든 모델일 수 있습니다. 이 모델은 어떤 과정(프로세스), 시스템, 또는 현상의 일부 모습을 나타내거나 설명하려는 것을 목표로 합니다. 과학적 모델은 예측을 하는 데 사용할 수도 있지만, 예측을 하지 않는다고 해서 과학적이지 않다는 뜻은 아닙니다. 과학적 모델은 항상 세상을 ‘사실적'으로 표현하는 것은 아닙니다. 대신, 눈에 보이지 않거나 추상적이고 이해하기 어려운 개념을 탐구하고 설명할 수 있게 해주는 도구입니다. 예를 들어, 지구 중심 모델은 실제 태양계의 모습과는 다르지만, 천체의 움직임과 관련된 생각을 설명할 때 유용하게 쓰입니다. 또한, 하나의 개념을 완전히 이해하고 설명하기 위해서는 하나 이상의 모델이 필요할 수도 있습니다.

Copernicus's heliocentric system
Caption: Sketch of Copernicus's heliocentric model of the Solar System, from his book "De revolutionibus orbium coelestium" (On the revolution of the heavenly spheres) published in 1543. Shown are the Sun as well as the orbits of Mercury, Venus, the Earth (itself orbited by the Moon), Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. The outermost circle represents the sphere of the stars.
In this model, the Earth is not special – it is merely one planet, among several, orbiting the Sun. This was the first example for what is now known as the Copernican Principle: that our positions as observers in the universe is not special or privileged in any way. The shift from the geocentric to the heliocentric model of our universe is known as the Copernican revolution.

A Geocentric chart from 1568
Caption: This map, created in 1568 by the Portuguese cartographer Bartolomeu Velho, depicts the worldview of the time, when many scholars believed in a geocentric model of the cosmos — the idea that Earth sits at the centre of the Universe with the Sun, Moon, the five planets known at the time, and stars moving around it. Although primarily a navigational chart, the design and layout of this map were influenced by astronomical understanding rooted in geocentric thinking.
The geocentric model was widely accepted for many centuries, especially in Europe, based on interpretations of celestial motions and philosophical traditions that placed Earth at the centre. It was only later, with observations by astronomers such as, Galileo Galilei, that this model was replaced by the heliocentric model, which places the Sun at the centre of the Solar System.
