1. Man’s View of the Universe By: Anthony Chitko

2. Aristotle Lived in Ancient Greek BC. Lived in Ancient Greek BC. Thought the Heavens were composed of fifty-five concentric, crystalline spheres. Thought the Heavens were composed of fifty-five concentric, crystalline spheres. His views of the universe explained that the spheres moved with constant angular velocity, and the objects attached to them were always the same distance from Earth because they moved on spheres. His views of the universe explained that the spheres moved with constant angular velocity, and the objects attached to them were always the same distance from Earth because they moved on spheres.

3. Ptolemy Lived in Roman Province of Egypt 150 A.D. Lived in Roman Province of Egypt 150 A.D. His Ptolemaic Universe was contributed to the modification of Aristotle’s universe. His Ptolemaic Universe was contributed to the modification of Aristotle’s universe. There were three incorrect held beliefs that helped from ancient views of the universe for more than a thousands years. 1- All motion in the heavens is uniform circular motion. 2- The objects in the heavens are made from perfect material, and cannot change their intrinsic properties. 3- The Earth is at the center of the universe.

Epicycles were geocentric models to explain the variations of speed and direction of motion. Designed by Apollonius of Perga.

4. Copernicus Lived in 16 th Century A.D.(1473-1543) Lived in 16 th Century A.D.(1473-1543) Heliocentric means that the Sun was the center of the Solar System, not Earth. Heliocentric means that the Sun was the center of the Solar System, not Earth. Geocentric is a theory that Earth is at the center and the Sun and other objects go around it. Geocentric is a theory that Earth is at the center and the Sun and other objects go around it. Old ideas were – Old ideas were – 1. the planets that were in a system naturally vary in brightness because they were not always the same distance from Earth. 1. the planets that were in a system naturally vary in brightness because they were not always the same distance from Earth. 2. Retrograde motion (motion in the opposite direction) could be explained in terms of geometry and a faster motion for planets with smaller orbits. 2. Retrograde motion (motion in the opposite direction) could be explained in terms of geometry and a faster motion for planets with smaller orbits. Another idea is a Sun-centered Solar System Another idea is a Sun-centered Solar System People wouldn’t accept Copernicus’s ideas until 100 years after his death.

Aristech proposed the Sun-centered Solar System 2000 years ago Aristech proposed the Sun-centered Solar System 2000 years ago Geocentric and Heliocentric was embraced by both Aristotle and Ptolemy Geocentric and Heliocentric was embraced by both Aristotle and Ptolemy

5. Brahe 1546-1601 A.D. 1546-1601 A.D. Three major contributions were- Three major contributions were- 1. Precise observations by devising instruments. 1. Precise observations by devising instruments. 2. Observations particularly Mars. 2. Observations particularly Mars. 3. Observe of Supernova( new star) 3. Observe of Supernova( new star) Nose was cut off by sword fighting with a student, died of a urinary infection. Nose was cut off by sword fighting with a student, died of a urinary infection.

6. Keplar 1571-1630 A.D. 1571-1630 A.D. A ellipse is a flatten circle. A ellipse is a flatten circle. He was able to use Brahe’s research because he died and his family kept it away from Keplar. He was able to use Brahe’s research because he died and his family kept it away from Keplar. Perihelion is the closet distance from the planets to the sun. Perihelion is the closet distance from the planets to the sun. Aphelion is the farest distance from a planet to the sun. Aphelion is the farest distance from a planet to the sun. His first law of planetary motion is that the planet’s orbits are ellipses. His first law of planetary motion is that the planet’s orbits are ellipses. Second law is the planets sweep out equal areas of its obit in equal time. Second law is the planets sweep out equal areas of its obit in equal time. He also saw the Supernova (SN- 1604). He also saw the Supernova (SN- 1604).

7. Galileo 1564-1642 1564-1642 His work with motion was Newton’s 1 st law Inertia His work with motion was Newton’s 1 st law Inertia He’s ideas were by virture of a series of experiments, realizing the analysis of Aristotle was wrong because he need to account properly for a hidden force. He’s ideas were by virture of a series of experiments, realizing the analysis of Aristotle was wrong because he need to account properly for a hidden force. He also realized that as the motional forces were decreased, the object would move further and further before stopping. He also realized that as the motional forces were decreased, the object would move further and further before stopping.

8. Aristotle vs. Galileo Aristotle said objects on Earth stopped moving once applied forces were removed Aristotle said objects on Earth stopped moving once applied forces were removed He also said that spheres in the heavens only moved because of the action of the Prime Mover, continually applied the force to outer spheres. He also said that spheres in the heavens only moved because of the action of the Prime Mover, continually applied the force to outer spheres. Aristotle believed the motion of the heavens were a different set of laws than those that governed men on Earth. Aristotle believed the motion of the heavens were a different set of laws than those that governed men on Earth. Galileo believed that the laws that governed the heavens were the same laws that Aristotle said that governed motion of the Earth’s surface. Galileo believed that the laws that governed the heavens were the same laws that Aristotle said that governed motion of the Earth’s surface.
