History[edit | edit source]
In Ancient Iran the study of stars and planets and its effect on humans had been a subject of research.
The Ancient Iranians knew the relationship between the Sun and the Earth. While Galileo was punished for saying that the earth went round the sun, the Iranians 2000 years before had already all their calculations in place with regard to the movement of the earth round the sun!
