Question
Which of the following statements is about Kepler?The recommended time to answer this question is 2.5 minutes.Soru 18YanıtWith the help of the telescope he made, he saw that Jupiter had moons.He discovered that the orbits of the planets are elliptical.He placed the Sun very close to the center of the Solar System.He was brutally punished for claiming that the universe is infinite.He precisely recorded the positions of objects in the sky with his quadrant.
Solution
The statement about Kepler is "He discovered that the orbits of the planets are elliptical." This is a key part of Kepler's first law of planetary motion, which states that planets move in elliptical orbits with the sun at one focus. The other statements do not accurately describe Kepler's contributions to astronomy.
