Johannes Kepler is a famous mathematician, astronomer and astrologer of the scientific revolution of the 17th century. Kepler made a very important contribution to the fields of astronomy and mathematics. Without him, we might not have made certain discoveries until much later. He is one of the most important scientists of the scientific revolution. Johannes Kepler made significant contributions to astronomy and achieved incredible work and achievements, all thanks to his early love of science. To begin with, Johannes Kepler's early life plays an important role in his development of a love of science. Kepler was born on December 27, 1571 in Weil der Stadt, Württemberg, Germany. He had two brothers and a sister. His mother was Katharina Guldenmann and his father was Heinrich Kepler, who is said to have died during the Eighty Years' War. Her mother was the daughter of an innkeeper, healer and herbalist, and she was tried for witchcraft. Kepler was born prematurely and was therefore very ill as a child. When he was young, he caught chicken pox, which gave him weak vision and paralyzed hands. On top of that, his family was very poor. He was introduced to astronomy very early and developed a passion for it. He had observed some astronomical events from a very young age, which surely contributed to his love for this planet. He naturally understood mathematics very well from a young age and impressed many people with his mathematical abilities. For example, “he often impressed travelers at his grandfather's inn with his phenomenal mathematical ability” (Johannes Kepler: Early Years, nd). His intelligence earned him a scholarship to the University of Tübingen. There he studied theology and philosophy and was introduced to the ideas ...... middle of paper ......undi", "Mysterium cosmographicum", "Tabulae Rudolphinae" and "Somnium". All these achievements helped enlighten everyone. In conclusion, Kepler played a huge role in the scientific revolution with his many genius discoveries and major achievements due to his early love for science. an important role in the development of science, it would have taken years longer to discover some of his achievements. Johannes Kepler is therefore one of the most important astronomers of the scientific revolution sciencelives.com/kepler. .html http://www.space.com/15787-johannes-kepler.html http://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/circles/Lesson-4/Kepler-s-Three-Laws
