Today Millions of Years Ago, The Universe Was Created According To Astronomer Johannes Kepler’s Theory

INDOZONE.ID – On April 27, 4977 BC, on this very day tens of millions of years ago, universe created according to theory Johannes Keplera German mathematician and astronomer who is considered the founder of modern science.

Reported History, Kepler was born on December 27, 1571 in Weil der Stadt, Germany. While a student, he studied the theories of the Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus about the order of the planets.

Copernicus (1473-1543) believed that the sun was the center solar systema theory that contradicted the prevailing view of the day that the sun revolved around the earth.

In 1600, Kepler migrated to Prague to work for the Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe, the imperial mathematician for Rudolf II, emperor of the Holy Roman Empire.

At that time, Kepler’s main project was investigating the orbit of Mars. When Brahe died the following year, Kepler took over his job and inherited Brahe’s extensive collection of astronomical data that had been painstakingly observed by the naked eye.

In the next decade, Kepler learned about the work of the Italian physicist and astronomer Galileo Galilei (1564-1642), the inventor of the telescope through which he discovered the mountains and craters of the moon, the four largest moons of Jupiter and the phases of Venus.

Kepler corresponded with Galileo and eventually acquired his own telescope and refined the design.

In 1609, Kepler published the first two of his three laws of planetary motion which stated that the planets moved around the sun in ellipses, not circles as was widely believed at the time.

In addition, he stated that the planets move faster as they approach the sun. sun and slowed down as they moved away.

In 1619, he produced his third law which uses mathematical principles to relate the time it takes a planet to orbit the sun to the planet’s average distance from the sun.

Kepler’s research was slow to gain widespread traction during his lifetime, but later became a major influence on the English mathematician Sir Isaac Newton (1643-1727) and his law of gravitational force.

In addition, Kepler did important work in optics, including demonstrating how the human eye and mathematics work.

As for Kepler’s calculations of the creation of the universe, scientists in the 20th century developed the Big Bang theory which suggests that his calculations spanned about 13.7 billion years.
