    The nuance I savored: it was never apparent to me that astronomers of the time weren't trying to figure out natural laws; that they were working on a basic assumption that the motion of heavenly bodies was something more like a supernatural signature, a flourish of divine design meant to be seen by man and by its absurdity call out to be decoded. The idea of natural laws was just not on the table; not a real concern.
    The implicit message I savored: you've often commented on how religion and science have not been at odds in the way the popular notion thinks of it. This biography through the lens of the history of astronomy is a really strong and concrete example of what you're driving at with that statement.
    As always, I enjoyed this immensely :)

    The most amazing thing about Kepler isn't that he transcended his bias, but that we thin that because he did, that problem no longer exists. It is a heroic tale, and for this channel's part, I can not wait to see the conclusion. After a few decades of experience in the academe, I would say, that reputation and money still dominates over imagination or results. Oh god, now I sound like Dr Ray Stantz.

    I first learned about Johannes Kepler from the seminal series COSMOS back in the early 1980s. Carl Sagan talked about Kepler's time as math professor, how his students were bored to tears over his ramblings.
    This video is even more informative and gives background information that COSMOS didn't really have time for. I like this video documentary a lot.

    Also, since I learned about Tycho Brahe's demise, I've been using euphemisms like "potential Tycho Brahe moment" for when I suddenly realise I've forgotten to take a bathroom break while working.

    Brache's sudden illness raised suspicion that Kepler poisoned him and that suspicion lasted a long time. It was finally resolved when Brache's body was exhumed and tested and they found no traces of the common poisons of that day.
    I had no idea about much of this stuff though, beyond knowing that Kepler longed to get a hold of Brache's notes. He a hard time for a while. Very interesting.
