- Location: Wiltshire, England
- Purpose remains controversial but the center was carefully aligned in order to clearly view the summer solstices it helped predict the eclipses

- Greek Mathematician
- Location: Alexandria in Roman province of Egypt 
- Founder of Ptolemaic model of solar system; Earth is at center, everything else revolves around Earth
- Epicycles explained the backwards motion of planets
- 80 circular paths to explain motion of the known celestial bodies

- Location: Poland 
- Founder of Heliocentric model; Sun is the center, everything revolves around it 
- Most accurate model of its time 
- Orbits are in circles

- Location: Italy 
- Mathematician and philosopher 
- Used new technology of the time; he constructed his own telescope 
- Discovered: moons geography, sun spots on sun and Jupiter’s moons 
- Published his work supporting Heliocentric model; jailed for opposing the churches common belief

- Location: Europe (Denmark)
- Studied astrology, alchemy and medicine  
- Made his observations in his own observatory utilizing his own instruments he made 
- Kept detailed records of stars, planets, and other astronomical events including a comet and a supernova
- identified positions of celestial bodies which helped in the creation of the laws of planetary motion

- Location: Germany 
- Used Brahe’s work 
- Founder of Kepler’s Laws of Planetary Motion 
    - 1: The orbital paths of the planets are elliptical (not circular), with the Sun at one focus; eccentricity; closer to 0 = circular, closer to 1 = ovular 
     - 2: An imaginary line connecting the Sun to any planet sweeps out equal area in equal amounts of time
       - 3: The square of a planets orbital period is proportional to the cube of it’s semimajor axis

- Location: England 
- Discovered gravity and the law of universal gravitation
- Acceleration due to gravity g=9.81 m/s^2
- Law of inertia: an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted on by an outside force
- Universal gravitational: Every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the distance between their centers

- Location: Germany 
- Developed theories of special and general relativity 
- Special Relativity: relating space and time. The observance of space and time are relative to each individual observer
- General Relativity: theory of gravitation that explains how objects with mass warp space time: massive objects bend space and slow down time

- Location: Europe (United Kingdom)
- Predicted the existence of black holes and how they emit Hawking radiation 
- Hawking Radiation: electromagnetic radiation given off by a black hole, due to quantum effects, causes it to lose matter. If a black hole loses more matter than it gains, it could shrink and eventually vanish

- Location: Greece
- One of the first to theorize that the Earth orbited around the Sun
- Considered the founder of Trigonometry 
- Ranked the stars by brightness

-  First patented in 1608
- Location: The Netherlands (Dutch) 
- Utilized an arrangement of lenses or curved mirrors and lenses, or various devices used to observe distant objects by their emission, absorption, or reflection of electromagnetic radiation
- Reflecting Telescope: a mirror where the light will bounce off and is then focused into a smaller area
- Refracting Telescope: uses lenses that focus the light as it travels towards the other end
