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.

Tycho Brahe was a nobleman and a difficult character, and it would have been beneath his dignity to 'work together' with Kepler, one of his employees. Most of Kepler's work was done after Brahe's death when he gained access to the figures from Brahe's detailed high-quality measurements. Kepler used the measurements and assumed the heliocentric idea - the Sun at the centre - to produce his three laws of planetary motion. Many years later Newton's discoveries of the laws of motion and the law of gravity, plus his use of differential calculus, showed why Kepler's laws are as they are, and the heliocentric theory was later generally accepted.
Johannes Kepler did not invent the telescope. The Invention of the telescope is credited to three people Hans Lippershey, and Jacob Metius. The first records appear in 1608, more than 60 years before Kepler was born. The Kepler telescope was built by Ball Aerospace & Technologies and launched by NASA in 2009. This telescope was not invented by Johannes Kepler but was merely named in his honor.
Newton had the advantage of being born later in the same year that Galileo died. He therefore had more opportunities to make scientific discoveries based on what earlier scientists had found. Newtons discoveries allowed him to explain, among other things, that the planets follow Kepler's laws through the law of gravity and the laws of motion. Other than tiny adjustments from the General Theory of Relativity, Kepler's model is the one still in use today.
There is a relationship between the planets distance from the sun and the time taken for one orbit (planets year), described in Keplers third law. The square root of the time taken to orbit the sun is proportional to the cube of the average distance between the sun.
From Kepler's 3rd law the length of the year at that distance would be 3**(1.5) years, in other words 5.196 years, calculated by taking the square-root of 3-cubed.
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
One of the parts of an ellipse is the length of its major axis. Half that is called the semimajor axis. Kepler's 3rd law says that the time to do one orbit is proportional to the 3/2 power of the semimajor axis. IF the semimajor axis is one astronomical unit the period is one year (the Earth). For a planet with a semimajor axis of 4 AUs the period would have to be 8 years, by Kepler-3.

The year Kepler firstpublished this ideawas 1609.
According to Kepler's Universe theory, the universe was born in 4977 BC.
1993
Not at all. When we use it to program our interplanetary spacecraft, the planets they're headed for show up in the right places and right on time. When we massage Newton's law of universal gravitation, it spits out Kepler's laws, and the tiny differences between Newton's math and what we actually observe in the sky are perfectly accounted for by Relativity. Altogether, Kepler is doing pretty well for a 500-year-old theory.
Johannes Kepler studied under Tycho Brahe starting in 1600. After Brahe died one year later, Kepler took over his position as astronomer to the court in Prague.

The period can refer to one of two things: the planets rotation about its axis (how long its day is) and the rotation around its star (how long its year is).
