And then along came Tycho Brahe and Johannes Kepler, who modified that system, making it even better.

之后，布拉赫可开普勒修改了日心说体系，使之更完善。

And that's what Tycho Brahe and his buddy, or his assistant, really, Johannes Kepler did back in the 1600s.

这就是第谷·布拉赫和他的伙伴，确切的说是他的助手，约翰尼斯·开普勒在17世纪所做的。

The seventeenth century witnessed the emergence of whole new fields of scientific inquiry across Europe after the groundwork had been laid down by continental scientists like Copernicus, Galileo, Tycho Brahe and Johannes Kepler in the sixteenth century.

在哥白尼、伽利略、第谷·布拉赫和约翰尼斯·开普勒等大陆科学家在 16 世纪奠定了基础之后，17 世纪见证了整个欧洲全新的科学探究领域的出现。

Tycho Brahe showed quite a passion for the solar system when he was but a youth, and so did Kepler; and James Ferguson had a surprising knowledge of the stars by the time he was eleven or twelve'.

第谷·布拉赫年轻时就表现出对太阳系的热情，开普勒也是如此。詹姆斯·弗格森 (James Ferguson) 在 11 或 12 岁时就对星星有了惊人的了解。
