To all you self-proclaimed center of the universe folks (don't deny it, we've all thought that at some point), come experience our geocentric vs. heliocentric interactive installation! This 1.2-square-meter star-themed turntable will let you personally experience the entire process of how human understanding is "debunked." Standing in front of this exquisite mechanical model, you'll see two completely different cosmological systems. Rotate the handle to select the mode: in geocentric mode, all the planets revolve around you (feels amazing, right?); switch to heliocentric mode, and you'll find yourself instantly "downgraded" to an ordinary planet. The most exciting part is here: adjust your perspective to observe Venus. In geocentric mode, its orbit is incomprehensibly complex, while in heliocentric mode, it becomes elegant and simple. Press the button to watch the evolutionary animation, and you'll see how generations of scientists have moved from error to truth.
