Johannes Kepler
Johannes Kepler (1571-1630) was a German astronomer and mathematician best known for formulating the three laws of planetary motion, which provided a foundation for celestial mechanics. His work built upon the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus and contributed significantly to the Scientific Revolution. Kepler's laws described the elliptical orbits of planets and established a mathematical framework for understanding their motion, influencing both Isaac Newton and the development of modern physics.
