As I expanded the study into a doctoral thesis, and particularly as I grappled with the Astronomia nova, I found that I could not explain the physics to my satisfaction without adopting a more comprehensive attitude, and treating the Astronomia nova as a single extended argument. Kepler believed his argument to be ultimately about the design of Creation; but in the Astronomia nova, he presented it as physical astronomy-a new science. In these pages, I try to explain how the physical astronomy works, for surprisingly little of it has been explained before. I also try to show how Kepler's detailed investigations were always directed at the larger goal of understanding the true design of the heavens. I hope that readers who have hitherto regarded Kepler as a diligent condenser of data, or as a numerically inclined mystic, will learn here to appreciate the intelligence and integrity with which he pursued scientific truth. (Vorwort) // INHALT : Preface ------ Introduction ------ Mysterium Cosmographicum ------ Astronomia nova ------ Epitome of Copernican Astronomy ------ Kepler and the Development of Modern Science ------ Bibliography ------ Glossary ------ Index ------ Index to the Astronomia nova. // . Im Gegensatz zu Brahe glaubte Kepler an ein heliozentrisches System wie von Kopernikus vorgeschlagen. Er machte aber insofern einen entscheidenden weiterführenden Schritt, als er den Bezugspunkt der Planetenbewegung in der Sonne selbst sah anstatt in einer fiktiven mittleren Sonne, wie sie bisher angenommen werden musste, um die seit dem Altertum vorherrschende Erklärung durch gleichförmig durchlaufene Kreisbahnen durchführen zu können. Dies war auch motiviert durch das Werk des englischen Arztes William Gilbert De Magnete, Magneticisque Corporibus, et de Magno Magnete Tellure („Über den Magneten, Magnetische Körper und den großen Magneten Erde"), das 1600 erschienen war. Auf diese Weise gelangte er zu der Auffassung, die Sonne übe eine in die Ferne wirkende Kraft aus, die mit wachsender Entfernung abnehme und die Planeten auf ihren Umlaufbahnen halte, die Anima motrix. Dies war zu Keplers Zeit ebenso spekulativ wie seine andere Vermutung, dass zwischen den Radien der Planetenbahnen und denen der platonischen Körper ein innerer Zusammenhang bestehe. .

From Hipparchus and Ptolemy in the ancient world, through Copernicus and Brahe in the sixteenth century, astronomers had used geometrical models to give a kinematic account of the movements of the sun, moon, and planets. Johannes Kepler revolutionized this most ancient of sciences by being the first to understand astronomy as a part of physics. By closely and clearly analyzing the texts of Kepler's great astronomical works, in particular the Astronomia nova of 1609, Bruce Stephenson demonstrates the importance of Kepler's physical principlesprinciples now known to be incorrectin the creation of his first two laws of planetary motion.
