This is the first part of a two part series on Kepler's work. It's a wonderful work of pedagogy striking the pretty difficult balance between mathematical detail and pop science story telling.

The videos go into a surprising amount of detail; the second part has a lot of the key details of Kepler's New Astronomy -- something I haven't even found in standard textbook treatments (including the first part of the great Celestial Mechanics monograph by Shlomo Sternberg).

In the fact, this person's channel is truly a gem and very underrated. I find a lot of his videos match or even surpass other such channels like 3b1b or vertasium.

The Renaissance Mathematicus writes regularly about Kepler (read the Post 3 for each year)

Thanks for the reference. I am indeed aware of The Renaissance Mathematicus and I do occasionally read the blog. Unfortunately I find his posts are often lighter on mathematical detail. Maybe the situation is different with his writing on Kepler.
