What did Aristarchus think the sun was and why did this not work?
Aristarchus thought that the Sun was a giant ball of fire at the center of the Universe. This is impossible because if it were a giant ball of burning material, with it's size and the amount of energy radiates, it would have consumed all of its fuel after only 5000 years. The age of the Sun is estimated in the range of about 5 billion years (roughly half way through its expected 10 billion year life span).
