Tycho Brahe was born on 14 December 1546, in Knutstorp, Scania (now in
Sweden), and he passed away on 24 October 1601, in Prague, Bohemia (now
in the Czech Republic). A Danish nobleman and astronomer, Tycho Brahe
made significant contributions to astronomy through his precise
observations of celestial bodies and the development of the Tychonic
system, a hybrid model of the solar system. His work laid the foundation
for later advancements in astronomy, and his collaboration with
Johannes Kepler played a crucial role in the development of Kepler's
laws of planetary motion. Tycho Brahe's legacy endures as a pioneering
figure in the history of observational astronomy.
