Kepler's quote about his own work is right up there with Sir Issac Newtons famous "This theory takes for granted a force that works instantly across infinite distances. Only a madman would belive such a thing" criticism of his own model of gravity that stood for 200 years before Einstein expanded it.

@@paradox9551 That is a fundamental axiom of the scientific method. You make observations, then you build a model, then you make predictions based on that model and go test them.

Kepler's Astronomia Nova is freely available as a PDF file online. In its one and only translation to English in 1939. 330 years after its original publication. I suppose because only by the 1930s enough Englishmen had become uneducated enough to no longer be able to read the original. It is quite readable even today. And Kepler uses some sense of humor in it as he describes his laborious process with its setbacks and sudden insights. It is written at the time of Shakespeare! People wrote in an accesible way back then.

Before even making the data "raw" for his purposes. He complained much about the endless calculations. But his moment of truth was when the same number turned up more than once. Turned out to be the difference between Mars perihelion and aphelion! As I remember reading him, it was the repeating number that got him intrigued, before he realized what it could mean. Writing down figures in tedious calculations day and night. Getting a bit funny in the head and imagining a pattern in the mess. And it turns out to be something real!

You should look up Le Verrier's manual calculation of the precession of the perihelion of mercury. He solved the N-body problem of Mercury's orbit around the sun _by hand,_ using perturbation theory to solve the otherwise unsolvable problem. He did this to such an accuracy that he found an error of half an arc minute per century. He didn't believe Newton was wrong, so he spent a decade painstakingly redoing his maths, only to get the same conclusion. Astronomers then spent decades looking for (and convincingly themselves) that they'd found a new inner-most planet whose gravity would explain the discrepancy. Of course, we now know there is no such thing, and it was in fact the first direct experimental observation of Einstein's General Relativity.

This is a good question. The main reason is that there is no “retrograde” motion of the Moon observed from the Earth (that was measurable with 1600s technology). This is in addition to the Moon’s low eccentricity which made it fit well with the idea of circular orbits (as opposed to non-circular ellipses)

Just a guess... To us it is quite straightforward that the same laws apply to all celestial bodies, because we know that for fact. Yet, to the naked eye of a 15th century astronomer the huge circular face of the moon looked nothing like those little wandering specks in the night sky, called "planets". So I can understand that noone even thought about going for the moon's motion first an then applying the moon's laws to the planets.
