The retrograde motion in the orbit of mars was a serious challenge to the standard geocentric cosmology which demanded that all the planets orbit the earth. Ptolemy (85-165 AD) came up with an elaborate mechanism to keep the earth at the center of the Universe.

Kepler’s Laws of Planetary Motion

Johannes Kepler 1571-1630

Law 1 The planets circulate in eliptical orbits with the sun at one focus

Law 2 A line joining the planet to the Sun sweeps out equal areas per unit time.

When closer to the sun, the planet moves faster

A CHRONOLOGY OF THE SCIENTIFIC REVOLUTION 

1440 Gutenberg completed his wooden press which used metal moving type.

1543 Nicolas Copernicus publishes On The Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres

1571 Tycho Brahe develops instruments for precise astronomical observation and records positions of stars and planets. He creates a Tychonic System of the cosmos called geoheliocentric. Planets revolve around the sun, while the sun and planets still revolve around the central earth 

1609 Johannes Kepler publishes his first and second Laws of Planetary motion. (l) Planetary orbits are elliptical.

(2) Planets sweep out equal areas in equal times 

1609 Galileo Galilei develops a telescope of 30X magnification and begins observations 

1619 Kepler announces his Third Law of Planetary Motion which stated that a planet's distance from the sun is related to the time it takes a planet to revolve around the sun

1632 Galileo publishes his Dialogues on the Two Chief Systems of the World which popularized the Copernican system and articulated the concept of a world subject to mathematical laws 

1633 Galileo is denounced by the Inquisition and forced to recant his belief in Copernican theory 

1667 Sir Isaac Newton constructs the first reflecting telescope

1687 Newton publishes his Principia Mathematica which explained gravitation, contained the components of Newtonian Physics (matter, motion, space, attraction), and challenged the Aristotelian/Ptolemaic cosmos.

~1660

The year Newton postulated gravity!

The Astronomer

Vermeer 1668

The Geographer

Vermeer 1668/9

These paintings reflect the blossoming of scientific enquiry in seventeenth century Europe.

At this time, Newton is making the first reflecting telescopes,

Louis XIV is building an observatory in Paris,

the satellites of Jupiter are being used for navigation at sea, and

Huygens has discovered the sixth satellite of Saturn.

The old views, that it would be presumptive for man to probe too closely the sky or the Earth, are being replaced by modern principles of science.

Monteverdi

Bach

Vivaldi

Scarlatti

Purcell

Mozart

Handel

And over this same period, as Physics became liberated and questioning, as architecture flourished, and art became less constrained and reflected the real world, there developed a blossoming of music.

The baroque period: new enlightened and liberated forms of music, and newly developed instruments.

The chamber works of Vivaldi

The splendor of Bach’s organ works

The choral works of Monteverdi and Handel

The new opera works of Purcell

The genius of Mozart

So we see that in this revolutionary time, Physics was ready for Newton (born in1643), to revolutionize our understanding of mechanics..
