“Indicating the earth may be the center of the Universe.”

I do not know about physics but philosophically speaking, in an infinite universe the center is wherever you are because all interior points are an equal distance from the edge. Thus you are always in the center, no matter how far you travel.

And philosophically speaking even if the universe is finite, and you’re the only physical life in it, then you are figuratively the center of the universe, regardless of your proximity to the physical center.
