View submission: Good Guy Johannes Kepler.
Kindly make that "circular" orbits. Otherwise, I concur. This guy had some massive dedication, collecting a mountain of data during the cold nights, and then analyzing them only to find some nasty numbers to work with. Great guy, great scientist.

He didn't collect the data, Brahe gave the data to Keppler when he died... although Keppler spent crazy time analyzing said data.
