How did Johannes Kepler come up with his three laws of motion?
Kepler's laws are about the planets' orbits. The first law says that the orbit of any planet around the Sun is an ellipse with the Sun at one of the focii. The second law states that the line joining the Sun to a planet covers equal area in equal intervals of time. The third law states the square of the time period of the planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its elliptical orbit. Kepler's law explained planetary motion, but nothing other than motion, and really no one could properly explain why Kepler's law worked. So therefore we move on to Newton's first law.
What cell did Robert brown discovered?
He discovered the cell nucleus within cells as one of his major accomplishments
Why did Kepler deduce the elliptical orbits of planets from Tycho's data where so many other earlier astronomers and learned men had missed it?
Tycho was the first astronomer to make measurements of enough accuracy to show that the older theories were producing errors in the planets' positions. The difference between an ellipse and the old model of a circle and epicycle, which gives a circle with the Sun off-centre, was so small that it needed high accuracy to notice the difference. Planets' orbits have an extremely small difference between the major and minor axes of the ellipses.

What was tycho brahe major?
He is credited with the most accurate astronomical observations of his time, and the data was used by his assistant Kepler to derive the laws of planetary motion.
What were tycho brahe's hobbies?
Galileo used to love to invent things and draw, and usually Galileo's dad will make him play the lute and was also intrested in knowing about the space myths
What did Brahe do in the late 1500s?
Tycho Brahe made major contributions to the field of astronomy with his observations of planetary motion and inventions of astronomical instruments to make those observations. The data he collected ultimately contributed to supporting the heliocentric theory of the solar system - which he didn't believe in. Further details and facts on Brahe can be found at the related link below.
What was tycho brahe major contribution to science?
He was a tireless and perhaps rather obsessive observer, who mapped out and documented the coordinates of many of the stars and planets year after year, which Kepler than used after Brahe's death to discover the fact that the planets in fact go around the sun in eliptical orbits.
