The Birth of Brah's Valley of Modern Astronomy

Brah’s Valley of Modern Astronomy.

In 1572, an earth-shattering event happened in the world, that is, Tycho, a 26-year-old Danish astronomer, discovered a new star in the constellation Sendai on December 11th of that year after accurate observation. He wrote and published a paper on the title of "Rising Star". This paper is better than a giant bomb. It shakes Aristotle's doctrine of celestial immutability, which people have always adhered to.

He was born in a nobility family in Scania, Denmark, on 14 December 1546. When he was a young man, he first studied philosophy and rhetoric at the University of Copenhagen, and later came to the University of Bizet to study law. But his favourite was astronomy.

In order to complete his observatory program, the Valley donated all his grants to the King of Denmark to establish the famous Forbourg Observatory on the island of Farn. The observatory is large and equipped with instruments. These instruments are made by the Valley itself, made of wood, iron and copper. The largest of them is a high-precision symbol, called the Valley Observatory. The Valley has worked on the island of Farn for 20 years, obtained a large amount of astronomical data, discovered many new astronomical phenomena, made a huge contribution to astronomy, and was later called the "Father of Modern Astronomy".

In 1599, the Valley settled in Prague and transported the instruments from the island of Vern to Prague. In 1600, the Valley met with Kepler and the two began a new work plan. Unfortunately, the Valley died in 1601, and his unfinished work was completed by Kepler. Kepler did not expect, he used the rich astronomical data collected by the Valley to further study it, and finally discovered the "Three Laws of Planetary Movement" and completed the compilation of Rudolf's stellar table.

The Valley of Brah

The ancestor of modern astronomy and Danish aristocrat Tycho Brahe has always been a controversial figure. British media recently revealed that Tycho had his nose cut off by his opponent in a duel, and finally had to put on a fake nose. Three hundred years after his death, when the body was exhumed, the nose was actually intact!

Tycho Brahe was born on December 14, 1546, to a noble family in Kiudestep, Scania, Denmark. At that time, there were no astronomical telescopes. In 1572, at the age of 26, Tycho discovered that a star brighter than Venus exploded. Later generations named this star "Tycho Brahe Supernova". Tycho's discovery established his position as the "ancestor of modern astronomy".

The contributions of the Valley to astronomy are well-known, but it is unknown that he was a “combatant” and was cut off from his nose because of the struggle.

In 1566, 20-year-old Zi Valley attended Rostock University in Germany. After a drunken conversation with his classmates, two drunken young men decided to win a duel. Because the night was dark, and after the drink, the two duels could not see each other at all. In a shock, Zi Valley's nose was cut off by each other inadvertently. To cover up the body's defects, Zi Valley designed a metal nose, made of gold and silver. Since then, Zi Valley has a nickname - "Golden nose".

In 1901, 300 years after Tycho's death, his body was exhumed by archaeologists. At that time, the body had already decayed, but the "golden nose" was intact, but it had turned green due to oxidation. Some historians suspect that Tycho's false nose is not made of gold and silver, but of copper. Others suspect that Tycho's tomb was once patronized by grave robbers, and the "golden nose" was replaced with a "copper nose".

Quirks: Favorite watching moose drunk

When historians studied the life of the Valley, they discovered that the great scientist had another bizarre habit, which was to love to see the hamsters after being drunk. According to documents, the Valley raised a hamster in its castle. Unfortunately, after a drunk, the hamster fell from the stairs and died.

Without the companionship of the camels, life in the Valley was lonely for many. In the late years, the Valley worked in Prague and established a new observatory. In 1600, the Valley met with Kepler, inviting the latter as his assistant. In 1601, the Valley died, and Kepler took over his work.

The Valley was an outstanding observer and founder of modern astronomy, but his view of the universe is wrong. The Valley believes that all planets revolve around the Sun, while the Sun guides the planets around the Earth.

Tycho Brahe (1546-1601)

Thro his life, he contributed much to astronomical research, and now there is a ring mountain on the moon, named after the valley.
