This guy was awesome! not only for discovering the first sypernova, now named SN 1572 (7500 light years away) but also for thugging it-out with his third cousin over math formula! I love science drama.
"And since no castle would be complete without entertainment, Tycho employed a clairvoyant dwarf as court jester." WTF i died. i feel like we are really not getting the whole story with this castle lyfe Tycho was livin
Kepler took his notes after he died. It was Kepler that did the math and worked out the elliptical orbits of the planets. Such a shame that he is given so little credit for demolishing geocentric dogma. Galileo made heliocentrism popular afterward and Copernicus famously suggested it with a crazy mish-mash of complex divine circular orbits some years before, but Kepler proved it..hands down.
Not trying to be "that guy" but as a person from Denmark and a man who studies its history, you guys got just two things wrong, his cousin was the one that cut off his nose, and he did not pass away from drinking, in fact he won many drinking battles in his castle. (And you pronounced the castle name wrong)
Tycho's contribution was mostly the accurate data he accumulated for 20 years in his nightly observations of the heavens. It was Kepler who made the best use of that data, and came up with the accurate laws of motion, after Tycho's death.
This is seriously too funny! Well done. I am studying Tycho Brahe for an adventure game I'm creating because his biography is simply priceless. You can't make this stuff up!! :D You forgot the part about his pet moose (yup, moose!) who drank too much beer, fell down the stairs and died.
Rumor has it Brahe owned a pet moose, which died falling down some stairs after having had too much beer. Nice video, but you should've used a map of 16th century Europe at 0:52
"acquire his data"? How about steal his data! Tycho's belonging were suppose to be sent to his family. Am I suppose to believe the man was too polite to get up and take a piss? Gimme a break. if the man was so popular(rock star status), I don't think he'd care if it someone was offended because he had to go relieve himself. I put my money on Kepler poisoning him so he could steal his papers.
Actually, there are a lot of theories behind his death. One is that he WAS poisoned, but not by Kepler. There had been rumors that Brahe had been having affairs with the queen. Awkward. Also, tradition stated that guests may not rise before the king, therefore, he could not get up to pee, lest he offended the king.
+Neoverse No, after his body was exhumed and autopsied in 2010, they ruled out all forms of poison, and discovered that indeed the seemingly-dubious story about his bladder was true based on medical evidence (though yeah, the "rock star status" claim is a bit of a hyperbole).
Yes, it was Kepler. And that's how Kepler derived his laws of motion. They really were one of the greatest tag teams in all of science, even though their overlap was relatively short.
Not that was talked about in the video. He was responsible for the upkeep of the royal chapel in Roskilde, and he neglected to the point that the roof caved in. The king was plenty mad about it. He mistreated the servants on Uraniborg to such an extent that even feudal mores of the time were breached.
thank you so much ted ed team. i like this video. i would like to watch some more scientists story with you , so please do some more videos on scientists.
Tycho's 'heliocentric-geocentrism' seems noteworthy ... for those of us who do see the cosmos rotating about us. Thumbs down for not hinting on Tycho's invaluable model(s).
So a sword duel was the way scientific arguments were settled. Mann can’t believe the formulas then Perhaps do the same with those who object in exams 😈
His mother war Lady In Waiting at Kronborg castle where Wilhelm Kemp visited as part of an entertainment tour. Back in London he worked with Shakespeare who later wrote Hamlet with inspiration from Thycho Brahe's life and the castle of Kronborg where his mother served the queen. Rosencrantz & Guildenstern were family to Thycho Brahe and Shakespere used their names in the play.
Rumour has it that Brahe kept a pet moose,which died falling down some stairs after getting drunk with beer. This incident is mentioned on the left page at 0:25
Hola. Me encanta todo sobre Ticho Brahe, pero; No entiendo inglish, por lo que me agradaría muchísimo, que lo traduzcan al Español. Por favor serían tan amables, se los agradecería mucho. Muchas gracias, hasta pronto.
Oui ce savant ne nous fait pas savoir ses découvertes et secrets, puisqu'il est mort vraisemblablement, empoisonné par ses concurrents? J'ai du mal a croire que sa mort est le fait d'une autre cause. Donc je peut très bien imaginer que son élève, et le reste de ses suppléants, ont continuer les thèses suite à celles de Tycho Brahe. Cette science là, est malfaisante et suis son court jusqu'à ce jours. Mince, c'est une confiance que je ne peux pas avoir.
Find it odd that no one in comments is suggesting syphillus as the real reason behind his facial deformity and mercury consumption. Am I missing something obvious?

GorillaGuerilla I'm from Denmark myself, and I can assure you that his name should be pronounced like Tyko Braa. If you really wanna make sure head over to his english wikipage and listen for yourself.
And I'm from Denmark too - it's pronounced with a "-he" Sound in the end - and I don't think an English wikipage is a very reliable source in pronouncing a Danish name with roots in Götaland...
He was poisoned, probably by Kepler, if you take a deeper look at Heliocentric model, you will see his also just by changing the centre of mass of the solar system. Peace
Kepler poisoning Brahe is nonsense. Kepler never got any data that Brahe deemed important in fact Brahe feared that he might be surpassed by Kepler so he granted him access only to his data about Mars that caused him problems in his calculations. It turned out that Mars has the highest eccentricity of all planets other than Mercury something that contributed to his first law of planetary motion.

Yeah, and how do you know that, there are many myths around his death.
Evan Luttrell was the sword fight against his cousin actually because of a mathematical formula?

First learned about Brahe from the original Cosmos series back in the 80s.

Why did you leave out that part where his pet moose got drunk and fell down the stairs? That was the best part.
Wondering where Sophia Brahe is. Since she helped him with most of his astronomy work. Especially with orbits.
When you discover a new star, that makes a new star.
Yes, apparently Tycho Brahe led a very interesting life.
I thought he bequeathed his rich astronomical data to Kepler, or was it another scientist?
Yes, it was Kepler. And that's how Kepler derived his laws of motion. They really were one of the greatest tag teams in all of science, even though their overlap was relatively short.
"Spending hours in the lab without any social interaction" 🥰 Sounds like my dream job! 😂
To be fair, there was no scandalous "poisoning" of Brahe by Kepler. Brahe's body was exhumed in 2010; no evidence was found. His bladder, though...
Why is he called "scandalous"? He didn't really do anything wrong.
Sylvia Han This video didn't say, but he had the falling out with the new Danish king over the supposed affair Tycho had with his mother, the queen.
Not that was talked about in the video. He was responsible for the upkeep of the royal chapel in Roskilde, and he neglected to the point that the roof caved in. The king was plenty mad about it.

He actually received a 5% budget, the most well funded observatory in history
Really interesting video, and the animations were lovely. It's kind of funny, seeing as I'm from Denmark :)
They don't make astronomers like him anymore . . .Fun guy!
I’m just mad because they made absolutely 0 mention of his pet elk which got drunk at a party then died falling down some stairs

That pronounciation tho...
Twenty years of studying and partying! He died at 55 when average age of death was 43-47 yrs. old. Madman of the heavens?
best airline for this is ted
I dream of a time when scientists and philosophers live in mansions and castles, instead of glorified jesters and ball-kickers.

Amazing vid thank you ted.
0:45, were partial derivatives introduced when Tycho Brahe was around?

Geocentrism unsurprisingly unmentioned, not even in the comments.
