:I have made some changes to the article in an effort to clarify.  Clearly no-one holds a heliocentric view of the universe any more.  Even a strict heliocentric view of the solar system does not really work because orbits are elliptical (although that might be getting to a level of detail that is beyond the scope of this article).  I think that the paragraph referring to relativity is incorrect, however.  Where orbits are concerned there are preferred frames of reference.  More editing required I think.  --[[User:GDewey|GDewey]] 17:26, 31 January 2008 (EST)
