论哥白尼开普勒对宇宙和谐之探求

The Search for the Harmony of Universe by Copernicus and Kepler

本文主要考察了哥白尼、开普勒的工作动机。对宇宙之和谐的信仰贯穿了他们工作的终身。在哥白尼那有力的具有决定性意义的一步飞跃中,他的理由仅使他的新理论在数学上更加简单、和谐。开普勒追寻哥白尼的脚步,在新宇宙体系中发现更多新的数学规律,从而使哥白尼天文学生效了。或许,他们工作的更深层次动因是为了揭示上帝造物之荣耀与伟大。

This article mainly inspects the work motive of Copernicus and Kepler. The faith of the harmony of universe impenetrated all of their lives. In that Copernicus＇ powerful leap, his reason only made his new theory more simple and harmony in mathematics. Kepler pursued Copernicus＇s step, discovering more new mathematical rules in the new universal system. Perhaps, their work motive in deeper level is to reveal the glory and greatness of God.
