Mysterium cosmographicum
Book • 1596
Mysterium Cosmographicum, published in 1596, is Johannes Kepler's first major work.
It presents a cosmological theory based on the Copernican heliocentric system, where the five Platonic solids are used to explain the structure of the universe.
Kepler believed this geometric arrangement reflected God's design.
The book was groundbreaking in its attempt to provide a physical explanation for celestial phenomena, though its specific model was later refined by Kepler himself.
