Understand the Problem
The question appears to be a list of factual statements and answers about historical figures and their contributions to astronomy and science. It seems to inquire about recognizing and verifying the correctness of various scientific facts related to planetary motion, notable scientists, and their discoveries.
Answer
Johannes Kepler is known for his laws of planetary motion, supporting heliocentrism.
Johannes Kepler is known for his laws of planetary motion, which describe the elliptical orbits of planets and their varying speeds. His observations and calculations were influenced by data from Tycho Brahe. Kepler was among those who supported heliocentrism, a view that led others, like Galileo, to house arrest.
