Who discovered that the planets travel in elliptical orbits around the Sun not circular orbits?

The discovery that planets travel in elliptical orbits around the Sun was made by Johannes Kepler in the early 17th century. He formulated his laws of planetary motion based on the observational data collected by Tycho Brahe. Kepler's first law states that planets move in ellipses with the Sun at one of the foci, fundamentally changing the understanding of celestial mechanics.


What instrument made possible the discovery of the planets?

the telescope


The observation that planets move in elliptical orbits was first made by?

Johannes Kepler in the early 17th century. He developed his three laws of planetary motion, with the first law stating that planets move in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one focus.


How do the inner planets differ from the outer?

The inner planets are smaller, denser, and rocky, while the outer planets are larger, less dense, and composed mostly of gas. Inner planets are closer to the sun and have shorter orbits, while outer planets are farther away and have longer orbits. Additionally, inner planets have few or no moons, while outer planets have numerous moons.


When did scientists find out the shape of the rotation that the planets made around the sun?

Johannes Kepler, a German astronomer, discovered that planets move around the sun in elliptical orbits in the early 17th century. This was based on observations made by Tycho Brahe. Kepler's laws of planetary motion revolutionized our understanding of the solar system.

Who made many observations and calculations to work out that planets' orbits are ellipses?

Johannes Kepler discovered that planets move in elliptical orbits by analyzing detailed astronomical data compiled by Tycho Brahe. Kepler's observations and calculations led to his discovery of the Three Laws of Planetary Motion, which revolutionized our understanding of celestial mechanics.


What affect does gravity have on the planets?

The planets' own gravity has made them spherical. Also there are other effects such as their ability to retain an atmosphere, etc. The Sun's gravitycauses the orbits of the planets.


What was Kepter's theory of the solar system?

Tycho Brahe made very accurate observations of the solar system. Brahe's assistant, Johannes Kepler, used the observations to figure out the shape of the planets orbits. When he used circular orbits, his calculations did not fit the observations. But after years of detailed calculations, he found that the orbit of each planet is called an ellipse. An ellipse is an oval shape.

What tool made possible the discovery of additional planets?

The discovery of additional planets was made possible by advancements in telescope technology, particularly the development of large ground-based telescopes and space telescopes like the Hubble Space Telescope. These telescopes allowed astronomers to observe distant planets more effectively and detect previously unknown planets orbiting other stars.
