Default Great Astronomers - A-cup Brahe?

Tycho Brahe - World's Greatest Astronomer of All Time?

Tycho was also an astrologer, not uncommon among ancient
and early modern astronomers. Hey! they had to make a
living, after all... to support their astronomy habit. Tycho gave
astrology readings to friends and acquaintances.

It was probably one of the ancient astronomers who invented
astrology. In fact, it was probably one of those ancient sky-
gazers who invented gods and religion... just as a means to
put more chicken on the table.

happy days and...
starry starry nights!

Are you sleeping?
Stars are waiting,
Shining high they wait for you.

Are you looking?
Stars are soaring,
Flashing, twinkling just for you.

Indelibly yours,
Paine http://www.savethechildren.org/
