Tycho Brahe (and his assistants) recorded measurements at his observatory on the island of Ven with an accuracy of up to 4 seconds of arc. Most of his measurements were angular measurements between celestial objects (between stars, between planets and stars and between planets).

Did Tycho Brahe have a skunk that he took with him everywhere?
Skunks are or were at the time (Elizabethan period) unknown in Denmark. They are native to North America.
What tools did Tycho Brahe use to measure planet and star movements?
Tycho Brahe used a variety of tools to measure planet and star movements, including large, precision-made astronomical instruments such as quadrants, sextants, and armillary spheres. He also developed his own instruments, such as the mural quadrant and the large mural sextant, which provided accurate measurements of celestial objects. Additionally, Brahe made extensive observations with the naked eye and maintained detailed records of his observations over several decades.

How did Kepler steal Brahe's data?
kepler thought that only brahes observation could solve his problem so in 1600 he joined tycho eith his work after one year tycho died and kepler stole his data from which he devised keplers laws
How did Kepler us tycho brahe's data?
Kepler used Tycho Brahe's data by developing his Laws of planetary motion and by analyzing his observations about planet's orbit.! :D
How did tycho brahes work contribute to the develoment of the heliocentric model?
Tycho Brahe made measurements of the planets' positions over time with greater accuracy than ever before. The results were used by Johannes Kepler to create the three laws of planetary motion in which the elliptical orbit makes its first appearance in the historyof scoentific thought. Later, Isaac Newton's discoveries in gravity and dynamics explained why elliptical orbits are so important and universal.
What is the homeland of tycho brahe?
Tycho Brahe's homeland was Denmark. He was born in what was then Skane, Denmark in 1546. Today, Skane is part of Sweden. Brahe was an astronomer who built and calibrated instruments to observe stars and planets. He died in 1601.
How was the discovery of the shape of the orbits of the planets made?
Careful and meticulous astronomical measurements by the astronomer Tycho Brahe followed by numerical analysis of that data by Johannes Kepler after Tycho's death.
