Abstract
THIS is a supplement to vol. v. of Tycho's collected works. It contains several examples of Tycho's observations of the sun and planets, and his discussion of them, assuming that the sun (the centre of the planetary motions) itself goes round the earth. These will always remain classic, from the part they played in establishing Kepler's Laws, and later Newton's law of gravitation.
