Tycho Brahe (1546-1601) metal insert over the missing part. He returned to Denmark in 1570. In 1572 Tycho observed the new star in Cassiopeia and published a brief tract about it the following year. 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 eventually became an astronomer. His scientific interests included Alchemy and he was a convinced believer in Astrology (celestial influences were believed to play a part in alchemical processes). On 11 November 1572, he emerged into the dark of the early evening, after a long stint of alchemical experimentation, and his first glance at the sky showed him an extra star in the constellation of Cassiopeia, almost directly overhead. He instantly summoned his chemical assistant to confirm that the star really was there. He was not the first to see the new star (a supernova) but his observations of it (published in 1574) did much to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the star really belonged to the firmament and was not merely a local phenomenon in the sublunary world (as comets were generally believed to be). The star is now usually known as 'Tycho's supernova'. It turned Tycho's interest back to astronomy. With financial help from the King of Denmark, he went on to set up a purpose-built observatory, on the island of Hveen in Copenhagen Sound. The observatory, called Uraniborg, was equipped with exceptionally large and accurate instruments (and with an alchemical laboratory in its basement). At Uraniborg Tycho made twenty years' worth of astronomical observations. After quarrelling with the new King, Tycho closed down his observatory and sought a place for himself and his instruments at various courts.

Tycho Brahe (1546-1601) Tycho [Tyge] Brahe (1546-1601), probably the greatest pre-telescopic astronomer. Born on 14 December 1546 in Knudstrup (Denmark) and of noble descent, he was sent by his family to study in Copenhagen, then to Leipzig to study Law, but he soon became entirely occupied with astronomy. In 1565 and 1566 Tycho studied mathematics at the universities in Wittenburg and Rostock. It is in Rostock that Tycho engaged in a duel with a fellow student and nobleman, that ended up costing him part of his nose. Tycho's reputation as an accomplished astronomer rose quickly, primarily through his observations of and writings on the 1572 Novae in Cassiopea, and of the 1577 comet . Tycho demonstrated, perhaps more convincingly than anyone before him, the falsity of the Aristotelian doctrine of the immutability of the Heavens, and of the Aristotelian theory of comets as an atmospheric phenomenon taking place in the sublunar sphere. On May 23 1576, by royal decree the Danish King Frederick II granted Tycho the island of Hven, east of Copenhagen (now part of Sweden, but a Danish possession at the time), as well as an annual stipend to further Tycho's astronomical researches. Tycho took full advantage of his independence and financial security. He established on the island the Uraniborg Observatory. Throughout his career, and in particular at Uraniborg, Tycho proceeded to build astronomical

TYCHO BRAHE Astronomer Brahe isn't as famous as Galileo or Copernicus , but in some circles he's considered the father of modern astronomy. He spent much of his life compiling the world's first truly accurate and complete set of astronomical tables all before the invention of the telescope. Brahe's assistant, Johannes Kepler , later used the tables to deduce the laws of planetary motion. In 1628 Kepler published the Rudolphine Tables , a list of remarkably accurate logarithmic astronomical tables based on Brahe's observations and Kepler's subsequent analysis. Extra credit : In 1566 Brahe lost most of his nose in a duel, and wore a metal replacement the rest of his life. Tycho Brahe appears with the Elephant Man in our loop on the Facially Challenged ...

Tycho Brahe 1546 föddes Tycho Brahe på Knutstorp i Skåne, som då tillhörde Danmark. Han var förste son till Otto Brahe, riksråd och länsman på Helsingborgs slott, och hans hustru Beate Bille Klausdotter. Tycho Brahe kom dock att till stor del växa upp hos farbrodern, riksamiralen Jörgen Brahe, på Tosterup. Denne betraktade Tycho som sin son och arvinge och önskade att han skulle ägna sig åt ämbetsmannabanan. Bl.a. såg han till att pojken fick privatundervisning i latin från sju års ålder. 1559 skrevs Tycho in vid universitetet i Köpenhamn för att studera juridik. Hans håg stod dock mera åt astronomi, vilket han ägnade sig åt på egen hand och i hemlighet, eftersom det inte ansågs vara lämpligt för en adelsman att syssla med "stjärnskådande". 1562 sändes Tycho till universitetet i Leipzig i sällskap med en äldre student, som på familjens uppdrag skulle se till att han höll sig till juridiken. Detta visade sig vara en omöjlig uppgift och de följande åren valde Tycho att ägna åt astronomiska studier vid olika utländska universitet, bl.a. i Basel, där han t.o.m. planerade bosätta sig. 1572 upptäckte Tycho Brahe, under en vistelse hos sin morbror Sten Bille på Herrevadskloster, en ny mycket ljusstark stjärna i stjärnbilden Cassiopeia. Han observerade stjärnan noga under mer än ett års tid och publicerade sedan sina rön i boken "De nova stella", som trycktes i Köpenhamn 1573. Med denna bok skapade Tycho Brahe sig ett namn inom den astronomiska forskningen.
