TYCHO BRAHE
Danish, Astronomer,
By HARALD MORTENSEN

the castle was erected in 1590-92.
In 1888 Tyeho Brahe's royal
patron died, and relations with
his successor, the young King
Christian ". soon became diff
cult. The king charged Tycho
Brahe with having neglected his
feudal duties, and two of the lands
We're withdrawn. Repeated COM
plants of Tycho Brahe's misuse of
the peasants of Hven also reached
the king. Other matters caused
him to feel dissatisfied with con-
ditions, and deeply mortified, he
finally left Denmark in 1897.
After a year or two at the
castle of Wandsburg near Ham,
burg. he received a summons from
the Emperor Rudolph II of b.
hemia, and in the autumn of 1899
he arrived with his family at
Prague. The emperor showed Ty-
cho Brahe great favor and offered
him the castle of Benatky, "a
miles north of Prague. as a resi-
dence. The observations were re-
sumed here, but the work made
no further progress. The promised
financial support arrived only
after long periods of waiting, and
Tycho Brahe was undoubtedly dis
satisfied with conditions in b.
hemia. He became morose and
taciturn and was difficult to get
on with. A banquet which he at
tended on October 10. 1901, led to
gastric trouble. and on October "a.
his active life came to clo2e at
the early age of So.
A few days after Tycho Brahe's
death the Emperor Rudolph pur-
chased the astronomical instru-
ments and observations from his
family for the sum of 10000 tha-
lers, very considerable sum for
those days. The money was never
fully paid, however. BY 1908, only
5000 thalers had been paid out.
the excuse being that there was
no money in the royal Golfers.
While the negotiations were in
progress, the family were obliged
to sell their jewelry and valu-
ables in order to live. The negotia-
tions were still proceeding with

his original intention of settling
abroad The landgrave drew the
attention of the Danish King Fred
erick II to this young man whom
Denmark was in danger OF losing.
The king received Tycho Brahe in
audience and offered him the
small island of Hven in the Sound
in fief, promising. in addition to
certain income, to establish a
suitable building on the siland.
(Hven was a Danish island which
passed to Sweden in 1860, by
which time nearly all trace of
Tycho Brahe's activities there had
been obliterated.)
In the center of the island was
erected. between 1876 and 1880.
the remarkable little castle and
observatory which was given the
name Uraniborg. from the muse
of astronomy, Urania. The castle
was surrounded by lofty walled
ramparts, within which were
orchards and flower gardens. In
the corners facing east and west
were the gateways, to the north
the servants abode. and to the
south the printing works where
Tycho Brahe's books We're printed.
The whole was laid out in Dutch
Renaissance style common in Den
mark at that time.
For 81 years Hven was the Gen.
ter of illustrious work done in
the service of science. Young men
from near and far found their way
to Uraniborg to be trained under
the guidance of Tycho Brahe. AS
time went on, the castle became
too small for the new instru-
ments that were made, so in 1884
the underground observatory of
Stjernborg C'Castle of the Stars")
was built nearby. Here the instru-
ments were protected against
wind and disturbances. and COW
cred by domes and roofs that could
be revolved to suit any zone of
the sky. A paper mill for the

on the fear that peoples income

the heirs in 1871, but the matter
was never settled.
The costly astronomical instru-
ments were destroyed VIII n
Prague was taken by King Fred
erik of Pfals in 1919, and nothing
is now left of them. But Tycho
Brahe's life's work, the astronom-
ical observations, have been pre-
served. They were given on loan to
Kepler for him to edit. On the
death of Kepler in 1881, the OBJ
servations passed on to his son,
DR.. Ludwig Kepler who Though
they belonged to the imperial
court) sold them to King Fred
erick III of Denmark for the sum
of 600 Danish dalers. The obser-
vations, comprising IS volumes,
were published in 1926 by the
Danish-born astronomer J. L. E.
Dreyer at Oxford. at the expense
of the Danish Language and Lit
erature Society.
The judgment of posterity on
Tycho Brahe has been unanimous:
he is fully entitled to be called
the reformer of astronomy. His
observations attained to the ut
most exactitude, and only the
later invention of the telescope as
directional instrument permitted
finer measurements. With the aid
of Tycho Brahe's wealth of obser-
NATIONAL data, Kepler was able to
enunciate the famous laws gov
erning the motions of the planets.
kepler himself said that without
these observations they would not
have been possible. On the work
of Kepler, Isaac Newton in his
turn based the law of universal
gravitation.

There is no denying that the

Kenya-British Key to Africa

mately, Britain would want to keep
light forces here as well as in Pales-
tine, Trans Jordan, Iraq, and the
Sudan. But British Army officers
say publicly, privately and positively
that they are on their way out OF
Egypt.
Foreign Minister Bevin Of Britain
offered recently, in talks with former
Prime Minister Sidky Pasha of
Egypt, to support September l, 1s4s
as the date for completion of the
evacuation. Sidky Pasha obtained
vote of confidence from the
Egyptian Chamber of Deputies after
reporting on his conferences with
Mr.. Bevin, but the negotiations
struck a snag later over interpreta-
ton of their proposals regarding the
future status of the Sudan. Sidky
Pasha resigned after that and King
Farouk I recalled his predecessor
Nokrashi Pasha, to try again for
an agreement.
Has Splendid Harbor.
Development of base in Kenya
comparable with that which the
British now have in the Suez Canal
Zone would take many years and
great deal of, money. 1t might be
placed in use, however, while far
short of such proportions.
Kenya's splendid harbor could be
developed to provide facilities for
large naval forces-carriers, landing
ships, and other craft-perhaps re-
placing Alexandria.
The ultimate answer seems to lie,
as elsewhere in the world, in the
minds of scientists and military men
in efforts to reduce ornaments and
control atomic power and, finally,
in the success or failure of nations
to get along with one another.

CAIRO.-The world is sinking so
fast that the British Empires life
line is virtually certain to be routed
around the southern tip of Africa
instead of through the Mediterran-
can and the Suez Canal in any
future war.
Difficulties of defending the Medi-
terranean have been, apparent since
the early years of World War II,
when Axis air power closed the sea
to through traffic. Since then the
10 ,0O0-mile bomber, the German "
weapons with their hint of more
deadly guided missiles to come, have
appeared.
The Suez Canal might be bonn
barded in any future war by guided
missiles or planes carrying atomic
bombs. Even if an attacker did not
have atomic bombs and forward de-
fenses kept his forces beyond the
range of guided missiles, the
chances are that ships could use the
canal only to dash northward and
back to supply British troops in
Palestine and Trans-Jordan.
Location Strategic.
That is the main reason why the
British have been looking lately for
new base of supply and strategic
striking power remote enough to
promise maximum security.
officials in London announced re-
Gently that they were giving serious
consideration to the crown colony of
Kenya, on the east coast of Africa,
2 500 miles to the south, as the site
of such a base.
Kenya is remote from any nation
with sufficient industrial resources
to support modern, full-scale mill
tary operations. It offers the best
harbor on. the east coast of Africa.
