Sinopsis:
Rewritten by Dewi Sulistya Wati. Johannes Kepler was a brilliant scientist who lived in an age filled with religious conflict, poverty, and fear of science. Born into a poor family in Germany, he grew up with an absent father and a mother accused of witchcraft. From childhood, he was captivated by the beauty of the night sky a fascination that led him to discover the laws of the universe. Kepler formulated three laws of planetary motion discoveries that shook the world and paved the way for Newton’s law of gravity. For him, numbers were not just academic exercises, but a cosmic song to understand God’s creation. Kepler’s legacy reached far beyond his own lifetime. He died in loneliness and poverty, yet his work became the foundation of modern space exploration from satellites to NASA’s Kepler Telescope. Today, his name appears on craters on the Moon, on distant exoplanets, and in schools and universities around the globe. For students who gaze at the sky with curiosity, Kepler’s story proves that a single mind even quiet and alone can change the way the world understands the universe forever.
