EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Johannes Kepler's groundbreaking concept of an attractive force from the sun, which he referred to as a virtue. In his pursuit to explain the elliptical orbits of planets, Kepler drew inspiration from magnetism, making his idea of gravity somewhat analogous to this mysterious force. The image captures the essence of scientific exploration and astronomical wonder. Kepler, a German mathematician and astronomer, revolutionized our understanding of celestial dynamics with his profound insights into planetary motion. His work aimed to account for the intricate paths traced by heavenly bodies around the sun. By proposing that a gravitational force emanated from our star, Kepler sought to unravel one of nature's most enigmatic phenomena. The photograph beautifully portrays this pivotal moment in scientific history when Kepler's visionary ideas merged physics and astronomy. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and determination in unlocking the secrets of the universe. Taken from Johannes Kepler's renowned book "Epitome Astronomiae Copernicanae" this image invites us on a journey through time and space. It reminds us that science is not bound by borders or limitations; it transcends cultures and eras. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, let us celebrate Kepler's extraordinary contributions while acknowledging that there is still much left for humanity to explore and comprehend about our vast cosmos.
