Kepler's Laws of Planetary Motion:

1] Each planet moves in an elliptical orbit with the sun at one focus

2] The line form the sun to any planet sweeps out equal areas of space in equal time intervals

3] The squares of the times of revolution (days, months or years) of the planets are proportional to the cubes of their average distances from the sun.
