Johannes Kepler's Polyhedra Johannes Kepler (1571-1630), best known for his three laws of planetary motion, was one of the most outstanding mathematicians of his day. In addition to his astronomical accomplishments, he systematized and extended all that was known about polyhedra in his time. While previous artist/geometers discovered particular polyhedra, he took a more mathematical approach: he defined classes of polyhedra, discovered the members of the class, and proved that his set was complete. For example, Kepler discovered the infinite class of antiprisms Kepler's logical approach to polyhedra does not mean that he was free of the mysticism of the day. The following illustration, from his 1619 book, Harmonice Mundi , graphically shows the Platonic associations of the regular solids with the classical elements: The tetrahedron corresponds to fire, the octahedron to air, the cube to earth, the icosahedron to water, and the dodecahedron to the cosmos or ether: The lower-left portion of the above figure illustrates Kepler's two star polyhedra, the small stellated dodecahedron and the great stellated dodecahedron . Although earlier illustrations of these solids exist, Kepler was the first to recognize them as meeting the definition of regular polyhedra, but with nonconvex

Kepler's Background Cosmic Mystery Celestial Harmony The New Aspects KEPLER'S LAWS OF PLANETARY MOTION I PLANETS MOVE IN ELLIPTICAL ORBITS AROUND THE SUN, WHICH OCCUPIES ONE FOCUS OF THE ELLIPSE An ellipse is a flattened circle whose properties are governed by two 'foci', or focal points, equidistant from its centre. The line joining the Sun and a planet (the radius vector) varies in length at different points on its orbit THE RADIUS VECTOR SWEEPS OUT EQUAL AREAS IN EQUAL TIMES The radius vector is shortest when the planet is at perihelion and longest at aphelion. No matter where the planet is in its orbit, however, the area of the ellipse covered by the radius vector will be the same over a given period of time. The shaded areas in the diagram are equal and the planet takes the same period of time to cover them, yet the distance it travels along its orbit varies. THE SQUARE OF THE TIME TAKEN BY EACH PLANET TO COMPLETE ITS ORBIT IS PROPORTIONAL TO THE CUBE OF ITS MEAN DISTANCE FROM THE SUN This can be illustrated with the example of Saturn. The year (i.e. the period of the Earth's orbit of the Sun) represents one unit of time. The Earth's mean distance from the Sun represents one unit of distance. Saturn takes approximately 27 years to complete its orbit. 27x27 (the square of the time) gives 729. The cube root of 729 is 9. Saturn's mean distance from the Sun is roughly 9 times that of the Earth.

Printer-friendly version Johannes Kepler by Ann Lamont First published in: Creation Johannes Kepler was born in the town of Weil der Stadt, Germany, on December 27, 1571. Johannes was a very small boy who was frequently ill. At the age of three years he contracted smallpox and lingered close to death for several months. His childhood was also unsettled and unhappy. His father was a mercenary soldier who was away from home for long periods, sometimes years at a time. When Johannes' mother went away to be with her husband, Johannes was left with his grandfather. The separation from his parents was distressing for Johannes, but God blessed him during these years. His grandfather, a dedicated Christian, encouraged young Johannes as his faith grew. Although poor, Johannes' grandfather appreciated the value of education and sent Johannes to school. The boy's outstanding academic ability soon came to the attention of his teachers. When Johannes' parents returned after several years, his father, Heinrich, set up business as an innkeeper.

Kepler, Johannes , 1571-1630. Brahe, Tycho, 1546-1601. Ulmae, Typis J. Saurii, 1627. Kepler (1571-1630) used the precise observations of Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe (1546-1601) to produce the Rudolphine Tables, the first application of Copernican theory that improved on the accuracy of Ptolemy's model. The tables are named for Emperor Rudolph of the Holy Roman Empire, whom Kepler served as Imperial Mathematician. The frontispiece shows several famous astronomers, including Copernicus and Tycho Brahe. Hanging on the columns are astronomical instruments and around the base of the structure the process of printing is illustrated. The Dudley Observatory Last Top Next

Kepler's Laws of Planetary Motion Uniform Circular Motion Kepler's First Law: All planets move about the sun in an elliptical orbit with the sun at one foci. In an elliptical orbit the distance between the planet and the sun is continuously varying: Keplers Second Law: Equal Areas in Equal Times Keplers Third Law: The Harmonic law which is mathematically stated as follows: In the above P is the orbital period measured in years and A is the semi-major axis measured in units of AU (the distance from the earth to the Sun). This empirical expression sets the scale of the solar system. For instance, if I observe an object to have an orbital period of 8 years then I know that it must have a semi-major axis of 4 AU, by the above expression. This solution is shown below: Ptolemy's Desperate Attempt The discovery of retrograde motion in the orbit of mars was a serious challenge to the standard geocentric cosmology which demanded that all the planets orbit the earth in the same direction. While retrograde motion has a natural explanation in a heliocentric cosmology, Ptolmey came up with an elaborate machine to both explain the observed retrograde motion and to keep the earth at the center of the Universe. This mechanism is shown in the movie below - thank goodness the real Universe doesn't work like this!: Ptolemy and his silly Epicycles A historical perspective on Ptolemy and the Origin of Epicycles The Electronic Universe Project e-mail: nuts@moo.uoregon.edu
