Out of curiosity, since I'm reaching far beyond my comfort zone, what role does Einstein play in this battle? If Newton put the final nail, but Einstein is often described as somewhat replacing Newton, what does Einstein's theory do to these models? Relativity seems to make use of "frames of reference" and "observers," which at first glance is the main difference between the geocentric and heliocentric model.
