#OnThisDay in #history - in 1559, Sophie Brahe was born. Sophie was the youngest sister of astronomer and scientist Tycho Brahe, and she grew up interested in the sciences, encouraged by him. She learned about medicine, astronomy, and horticulture, often assisting Tycho at Uraniborg. Her astronomical measurements - made without a telescope - were passed on to Tycho's pupil, Johannes Kepler, which he used in his works and so she indirectly influenced Isaac Newton.
