Brahe spent a long time getting data measurements of the sky from his observatory. Kepler then analyzed the data and developed laws of motion and discovered that orbits were ellipse.
The same traits that will make you successful in ANY field of endeavor - persistence and attention to detail.
It was Johannes Kepler who discovered and demonstrated that the Earth orbits the Sun. Kepler demolished the Aristotelian cosmography of perfect forms and unknowable causes, forever changed man's sense of his place in the Universe, helped launch the scientific revolution and also identified problems which would motivate the development of calculus.

I'm pretty sure you're thinking of Johannes Kepler.
There were many important contemporaries including Kepler, Descartes, Gassendi, Bacon, Gilbert, Mersenne, and Tycho Brahe.
The people who were part of the scientific revolution was mainly thinkers. Copernicus, Galileo, Newton, and Kepler.
They proposed the idea that the sun is the center of the universe. this started the scientific revolution.
Johannes Kepler was a devout Christian and his religious beliefs influenced his scientific work. He was Lutheran and saw his discoveries as a way to understand God's creation.

The universe was really three-dimensional, and instead of thinking of circles, he should be thinking about spheres, with the planetary orbits being along the equators
Copernicus and later Galileo and Kepler. Venus was found to have phases Jupiter was found to have moons Elliptical orbits which Kepler found would later be described by gravity Start there.
