(1610 painting)
(so he was ~39 years old)
(“they sure didn’t age so ‘gracefully’ back then!”)
.
(but at what age did the painter start painting?)
(and how long did it take to paint him?)
(over a year?)
(a day?)
(a month?)
(an hour?)
(a minute)
(a ‘second’)
(because it it the “second” division of the “hour”)
(aka “1/24” of a “day”)
(he looks ‘older’)
(as in “less head hair”)
(and “hair going from ‘black’ (no light) to “grey” (some light) to “white” (all light!))
(seems counterintuitive)
(alright!)
(enough already)

(died ’15 november 1630′)
(he died before the age of ’60’)

-‘johannes kepler’ was a german [‘mathematician’ / ‘astronomer’ / ‘astrologer’]-
(a key figure in the 17th-century ‘scientific revolution’, he is best known for his “laws of planetary motion”, based on his works astronomia nova, harmonices mundi, and “epitome of copernican astronomy”)
(these works also provided 1 of the foundations for isaac newton’s theory of “universal gravitation”)
(‘kepler’ was a mathematics teacher at a seminary school in ‘graz’, where he became an associate of ‘prince hans ulrich von eggenberg’)
(“hey lars!”)
(later he became an assistant to the astronomer ‘tycho brahe’ in ‘prague’, and eventually he was the imperial mathematician to ’emperor rudolf II’ and his 2 successors ‘matthias’ and ‘ferdinand II’)
(some believe that he poisoned ‘brahe’)
(with ‘mercury’?)
(to gain access to his beloved ‘laboratory”)
(he was also a ‘mathematics teacher’ in ‘linz’, and an adviser to ‘general wallenstein’)
(additionally, he did fundamental work in the field of ‘optics’, invented an improved version of the ‘refracting telescope’ (the ‘keplerian telescope’), and was mentioned in the telescopic discoveries of his contemporary ‘galileo galilei’)
“galleo let me go!”
“beelzebub has a devil put aside for me…for me…for me!”

(says “coach blumbee” / assistant of ‘holmes’)
(and he poisoned him with “MERCURY”!)
(avert your ears…you fag!…you HIV!”)
(cue “rent” theme)
(“the hauer twins” as gretchen to my “doctor faust”)
(and his name was ‘brahe’!)
(swimmers: “ja-yea!”)
(‘kepler’ lived in an era when there was no clear distinction between ‘astronomy’ and ‘astrology’, but there was a strong division between ‘astronomy’ (a branch of ‘mathematics’ within the ‘liberal arts’) and ‘physics’ (a branch of ‘natural philosophy’))
(‘kepler’ also incorporated ‘religious’ arguments and reasoning into his ‘work’, motivated by the ‘religious conviction’ and ‘belief’ that ‘god’ had created the ‘world’ according to an ‘intelligible plan’ that is accessible through the “‘natural light’ of ‘reason'”)
(‘kepler’ described his new ‘astronomy’ as “celestial physics”, as “an excursion into aristotle’s metaphysics“, and as “a supplement to aristotle’s on the heavens“, transforming the ancient tradition of ‘physical cosmology’ by treating ‘astronomy’ as part of a ‘universal mathematical physics’)
“WOW!”
“the balls on that ‘kepler’ eh!”
(“successor to “ARISTOTLE”!)
