Kepler was able to use Brahe's data to show that planets move in ellipses around the Sun ( Kepler's First Law ), that planets move proportionally faster in their orbits when they are nearer the Sun ( Kepler's Second Law ), and that more distant planets take proportionally longer to orbit the Sun ( Kepler's Third Law ). ...
