And speaking of geocentrism, Gerardus Bouw, a leading proponent of this model who also defends a solid firmament (sounds like John Martin, except I don't think Bouw also champions a flat earth as well), is/was a member of Creation Research Society (CRS - the source you cite), And, according to Walter van der Kamp, a Dutch geocentrist, it was due in part to encouragement from Harold Armstrong, one of the co-founders of CRS, that he founded the geocentric Tychonian Society. So I would suggest you proceed cautiously when citing material provided by this organization.
As for Russell Humphreys, IIRC, his model failed when it came to Jupiter and again IIRC he obtained his results by using a model with a free parameter and picked a free parameter that would match up with the conclusions he wanted.
