What did Kepler and Copernicus find out and what evidence did they give?

Kepler and Copernicus found solar system and said that earth revolves around the sun.


How did Kepler disagree with Copernicus?

Kepler disagreed with Copernicus on the shape of planetary orbits. Copernicus believed in circular orbits, while Kepler's observations led him to propose elliptical orbits. Kepler's laws of planetary motion refined and corrected some of the assumptions in Copernicus' heliocentric model.


What did nicolaus Copernicus ask Johannes Kepler?

Nothing. Copernicus died years before Kepler was born.


How did Kepler expand on Copernicus' ideas?

Kepler showed that planetary orbits were actually ellipses, not circles as proposed by Copernicus.


Who wrote new astronomy of celestial physics?

Claudius Ptolemy wrote the first book of astronomy


He proved the theories of Copernicus?

Johannes Kepler


How did Kepler's work improve on or support Copernicus' heliocentric?

Kepler completely replaced Copernicus's theory of the orbits of the planets, which was based on circles an epicycles, with a new theory using elliptical orbits. However Kepler retained Copernicus's idea of placing the Sun at the centre.

How was nicholas Copernicus research proven by Johannes Kepler?

Kepler's theory eventually replaced Copernicus's theory after Tycho Brahe's measurements enabled Kepler to realise that the planets move in elliptical orbits and not in the circles and epicycles of the older Ptolemaic and Copernican models. Copernicus was able to simplify the older model by placing the Sun at the centre instead of the Earth. Kepler in his new theory of 1609 retained Copernicus's idea of placing the Sun at the centre.


How did Johannes Kepler's theory differ from Copernicus?

Kepler formulated laws of planetary motion, while Copernicus merely(!) proposed that the sun was the center of the solar system rather than the earth.


What is the difference between Copernicus and Kepler description of planetary orbits?

Kepler realised the planets orbits are not circles; they are ellipses.
