DEVELOPMENT

SYSTEM
Ptolemy lived in or around the city of Alexandria, in
the Roman province of Egypt under Roman rule had
a Latin name  cited Greek philosophers, and used
Babylonian observations and Babylonian lunar
theory. In half of his extant works, Ptolemy
addresses a certain Syrus, a figure of whom almost
nothing is known but who likely shared some of
Ptolemy's astronomical interests.
The 14th-century astronomer Theodore
Meliteniotes gave his birthplace as the prominent
Greek city Ptolemais Hermious in the Thebaid .This
attestation is quite late, however, and there is no
evidence to support it. Ptolemy died in Alexandria
around 168.
Nicolaus Copernicus was
a Renaissance polymath, active as a
mathematician, astronomer,
and Catholic canon, who formulated
a model of the universe that placed the Sun
rather than Earth at its center. In all likelihood,
Copernicus developed his model independently
of Aristarchus of Samos, an ancient Greek
astronomer who had formulated such a model
some eighteen centuries earlier.
Kepler was a mathematics teacher at
a seminary school in Graz, where he became
an associate of Prince Hans Ulrich von
Eggenberg. Later he became an assistant to
the astronomer Tycho Brahe in Prague, and
eventually the imperial mathematician
to Emperor Rudolf II and his two
successors Matthias and Ferdinand II. He also
taught mathematics in Linz, and was an
adviser to General Wallenstein. Additionally,
he did fundamental work in the field
of optics, invented an improved version of
the refracting telescope, and was mentioned
in the telescopic discoveries of his
contemporary Galileo Galilei. He was a
corresponding member of the Accademia dei
Lincei in Rome.
