How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T21031384 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

-
A.
Ptolemaic system
The Ptolemaic system is an ancient geocentric cosmological model that places Earth at the center of the universe with the Sun, Moon, and planets moving around it in complex circular paths.
-
B.
Ptolemaic magnitude scale
The Ptolemaic magnitude scale is an ancient astronomical system, originating with Claudius Ptolemy, that ranks stars by their apparent brightness in six broad classes from first (brightest) to sixth (faintest) magnitude.
-
C.
Tychonic system
The Tychonic system is a historical hybrid model of the cosmos in which Earth is stationary at the center while the Sun orbits Earth and the other planets orbit the Sun, proposed as a compromise between geocentric and heliocentric theories.
-
D.
Uranian system
The Uranian system is the collection of Uranus, its rings, and its numerous moons, forming the planet’s complex and tilted celestial environment.
-
E.
Copernican system
The Copernican system is the heliocentric model of the cosmos that placed the Sun, rather than the Earth, at the center of planetary motion, fundamentally transforming astronomy and science.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
