In 1574 he gave a course of lectures on astronomy at the University of Copenhagen. He was now convinced that the improvement of astronomy hinged on accurate observations. After another tour of Germany, where he visited astronomers, Tycho accepted an offer from the King Frederick II to fund an observatory. He was given the little island of Hven in the Sont near Copenhagen, and there he built his observatory, Uraniburg , which became the finest observatory in Europe. Uraniburg Sextant Mural Quadrant Tycho designed and built new instruments, calibrated them, and instituted nightly observations. He also ran his own printing press. The observatory was visited by many scholars, and Tycho trained a generation of young astronomers there in the art of observing. After a falling out with King Christian IV, Tycho packed up his instruments and books in 1597 and left Denmark. After traveling several years, he settled in Prague in 1599 as the Imperial Mathematician at the court of Emperor Rudolph II. He died there in 1601. His instruments were stored and eventually lost. Tycho's major works include De Nova et Nullius Aevi Memoria Prius Visa Stella ("On the New and Never Previously Seen Star) (Copenhagen, 1573);

He is now known as "Tycho" since that is the Latinised version of his name that he adopted when he was about fifteen years old. For simplicity we shall use the name Tycho throughout this biography. Otte Brahe, Tycho's father, was from the Danish nobility and was an important man among the Danish King's closest group of supporters. Beate Bille, Tycho's mother, also came from an important family which had produced leading churchmen and politicians. Tycho was one of twin sons, but his twin died shortly after birth. His parents had one older daughter but Tycho was their eldest son. Here is a picture of his birthplace A strange episode occurred when Tycho was two years old. His uncle, Jorgen Brahe (in Tycho's own words, see for example [5]):- ... without the knowledge of my parents took me away with him while I was in my earliest youth. It was a strange episode since it did not appear to cause any family disputes nor did his parents try to take him back. Jorgen Brahe and his wife Inger Oxe had no children of their own, and they acted as foster parents to Tycho until Jorgen's death. Jorgen Brahe, like his brother Otte Brahe, was a leading Danish noble while Inger Oxe was the sister of Peder Oxe who was a member of the Rigsraads, the governing council consisting of 20 advisors to the King. In fact Tycho benefited most on the educational side from his foster mother Inger Oxe who had scholarly interests as did other members of her family, while the Brahes and the Billes had little time for scholarly pursuits.

Branch of Science Astronomers Nationality Danish Brahe, Tycho (1546-1601) Danish name: Tyge Brahe. Danish astronomer who set out to make accurate observations in order to be able to determine whether the Ptolemaic or Copernican system was the more correct. He was sponsored by King Frederick II of Denmark (not to be confused with the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II , who lived from 1194-1250), who built him a castle on the island of Hveen (now Ven) between Denmark and Sweden called Uraniborg. This was the first real astronomical observatory, although alchemical researches were pursued in the basement. From Hveen, Brahe used a quadrant circle to sight the planets and stars. His large, accurate instruments yielded measurements which were accurate to within four minutes of arc. He compiled an extensive table of planetary positions and a star catalogue and made the most accurate naked eye astronomical measurements of his day. Brahe observed the Comet of 1577 and, by parallax measurements, determined that it was farther away than the moon and not an atmospheric phenomenon as Aristotle had claimed. This shattered Aristotle's notion of crystalline spheres, since the comet would have to travel through the spheres in its path through the heavens. He also observed the

The Galileo Project Science Tycho Brahe Tycho Brahe Tycho Brahe (1546-1601) Tyge (Latinized as Tycho) Brahe was born on 14 December 1546 in Skane, then in Denmark, now in Sweden. He was the eldest son of Otto Brahe and Beatte Bille, both from families in the high nobility of Denmark. He was brought up by his paternal uncle Jörgen Brahe and became his heir. He attended the universities of Copenhagen and Leipzig, and then traveled through the German region, studying further at the universities of Wittenberg, Rostock, and Basel. During this period his interest in alchemy and astronomy was aroused, and he bought several astronomical instruments. In a duel with another student, in Wittenberg in 1566, Tycho lost part of his nose. For the rest of his life he wore a metal insert over the missing part. He returned to Denmark in 1570.

The Tycho Brahe calendar These is a year calendar with notes of special days in the life of Tycho Brahe, as well as "Tykobrahe days" , which are days in which you by folklore are at risk of bad luck, and should be extra careful. The reason why these days have the name Tykobrahe days are because especially when Tycho Brahe worked for the emperor Rudolph II, he had a reputation as a prominent astrologer. He did, as was common at the time, calculate a list of days, which were specially unlucky, when it was best to do nothing important at all. [1] 1/1 Tykobrahe day 2/1 Tykobrahe day 4/1 Tykobrahe day 6/1 Tykobrahe day 11/1 Tykobrahe day 12/1 Tykobrahe day 19/1 Tykobrahe day 9/2 1601 Tycho with family tries to get listed in the Bohemian list of noble families, but Tycho dies before the wish is processed. 11/2 1576 Tykobrahe day, Tycho is reached by the message that he has received the island Hven from the king. 17/2 Tykobrahe day 18/2 1576 Tykobrahe day, Tycho gets a letter concerning his economy from the court. 1/3 Tykobrahe day 4/3 Tykobrahe day 14/3 Tykobrahe day 15/3 1597 Tykobrahe day, Tycho makes his last observation on Hven.
