There were many famous ancient astronomers, and astronomers from hundreds of years ago (not exactly ancient. but vital to our present understanding of astronomy). They include:

  • Hipparchus
  • Ptolemy
  • Copernicus
  • Galileo
  • Eudoxus

There were also many Egyptian, Mayan, and Chaldean astronomers whose names have been lost over time.
