Kepler: The Interdisciplinary Scientist Who Measured the Universe - Ep. 60

Join Felix and Anish in this amazing life story about Johannes Kepler, the mathematician and astronomer who overcame childhood illness and poor eyesight to revolutionize our understanding of the universe. Discover Kepler's revolutionary three laws of planetary motion, his work on optics, and his collaboration with Tycho Brahe. We discuss Kepler's efforts at creating harmony between science and theological reflection, his defense of his mother in a trial for witchcraft, and his interesting notions of "cosmic music." From his struggles with religions to the lasting heritage in modern astronomy, this episode throws light on the man's life who really reached out for the stars.
