Default Kepler's viewpoint

Newton was guilty of arriving at an antecedent Keplerian conclusion
through an artificial astronomical method and specifically his
misjudgement of plotted retrogrades and how theey are resolved .Kepler
was well aware that Copernican heliocentricity was open to these
misjudegements -



"And though some disparate astronomical hypotheses may provide exactly
the same results in astronomy, as Rothmann claimed in his letters to
Lord Tycho of his own mutation of the Copernican system,nevertheless
there is often a difference between the conclusions because of some
physical consideration [causa alicujus considerationis physicae]....
But practitioners are not always in the habit of taking account of that
diversity in physical matters [in physicisvarietas], . . " KEPLER


The old chestnut of personal attack is fine when you have the original
texts to support you but you do not,what you have is a late 17th
century invention designed to favor theorists and their cataloguing
cronies,ultimately bound up in a calendrically driven clockwork
celestial sphere.It dilutes true genius,it prohibits the appreceation
of the Copernican reasoning and doctors history just as all cults do,on
several productive fronts it makes a mockery of Western astronomical
methods and introduces insincerity into a discipline that does not
allow it.

I am in competition with nobody,what I have is an astronomical
construction site with the original blueprints for productive
astronomy.
