Shortly before he died, Tycho hired Johannes Kepler to interpret his observations of the planets. See

Tycho didn t want to give Kepler all of his data

because he still had hopes of figuring out the planetary system himself. He gave Kepler the data on Mars because he thought Mars was the planet whose

observations would be the most difficult to interpret. Ironically, Mars orbit is the

one for which Tycho had good data that deviates the most from a circle and hence was most

likely to guide Kepler to the correct result.

Key points: Philosophy that drove

Keplers science; Keplers three laws

After Tycho died, his relatives fought Kepler for the observations

because they wanted to gather the glory that would result from interpreting them.
