would be the Ptolemaic and not the Copemican theory that would permit the comparison of the radii of planetary orbits by Copernicus's geometrical methods. Therefore, to take the possibility of comparing the magnitude of planetary orbits as an indication of the merit of one system over the other is to attribute fundamental significance to the location of humans in the planetary system. Such an attribution may have been appropriate within Aristotelian theory, but it is hardly appropriate now.
