Thanks.  Could you explain the geocentrist model to me as simply as
possible?  Is it as simple as that the earth is not moving and everything is
going around us once every 24 hours?  So that means the astronauts on the
moon would see what appears to be a revolving earth, going around once in 24
hours.

So where does the 28 days come in?
