Many historical figures and scientists were not classified as astronomers, despite contributing to the field. For instance, Isaac newton is primarily known for his work in physics and mathematics rather than astronomy, although his laws of motion and gravity significantly impacted astronomical studies. Similarly, figures like Galileo Galilei and Johannes Kepler are often recognized as astronomers, but their work also encompassed broader scientific inquiries that extended beyond just astronomy.
The first astronomer known to systematically map the stars was the ancient Greek philosopher and astronomer Hipparchus, who lived around 190 to 120 BCE. He created a star catalog that classified and ranked stars based on their brightness and position, laying the groundwork for future astronomical studies. Additionally, earlier cultures, such as the Babylonians, had also created star maps, but Hipparchus is often credited for his more systematic approach.
