Editing Deferent and epicycle (section)

==Epicycles and the Catholic Church==
Being a system that was for the most part used to justify the geocentric model, with the exception of Copernicus' cosmos, the deferent and epicycle model was favored over the heliocentric ideas that Kepler and Galileo proposed. Later adopters of the epicyclic model such as [[Tycho Brahe]], who considered the Church's scriptures when creating his model,<ref>{{citation |last=Håkansson |first=Håkan |title=Tycho the Prophet: History, Astrology and the Apocalypse in Early Modern Science |date=2007 |url=https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1057/9780230206472_8 |work=The Word and the World |pages=137–156 |place=London |publisher=Palgrave Macmillan UK |doi=10.1057/9780230206472_8 |isbn=978-1-349-35338-5 |access-date=2021-12-06}}.</ref> were seen even more favorably. The [[Tychonic System|Tychonic model]] was a hybrid model that blended the geocentric and heliocentric characteristics, with a still Earth that has the sun and moon surrounding it, and the planets orbiting the Sun.
