Tycho Brahe was a Danish nobleman with a legendary prosthetic nose, a flair for drama, and an obsession with measuring the heavens more accurately than anyone before the telescope. Chuck and Marco dive into Tycho’s “new star” that shattered old ideas about a perfect, unchanging sky, his science-island observatory, and the priceless data that paved the way for Kepler—and eventually Newton. And stay tuned for our original song, “The Man with the Golden Nose.”
