Throughout the early history of Science the heliocentric world model wasrefused because it contradicted the thoughts of Aristotle and the medieval"Impetus" theory of movement. Even Galileo's sky observations did not lead toany acceptance of the heliocentric model, because scientists derived fromAristotle's physics that the earth was static. It was not until 1640 whenGassendi proved the principle of inertia on a moving galley, as well asGalileo's laws of free fall with a giant wheel that "impetus-physics" whichincorporated naive beliefs about movement was abandoned. To understand themethods of calculating movement, novice students can be stitmulaed by usingthese initial experiments based on the dynamics of a ship movement and not relyon na\"ive approach. This can help novice students to attain a concept changefrom na\"ive to scientific conceptions about movement. Modern students whostudy movement were found to harbour many of the same naive beliefs as ourscientific forefathers. The history behind the elimination of these naivebeliefs is presented here in order to help encourage elimination of these naivebeliefs. Several studies found these naive beliefs to be held by novicestudents today. These naive beliefs held in the Science of movement have posedmajor problems for teaching novice students. Conflicting methods of modellingthese movements have been the source of much controversy over time as conceptschanged. Considering a conceptual change in history can be helpful ineducation.
